History

It was opened on 27 September 2001, with the opening of the new double-track line between Bordighera and Imperia, which is a deviation of the Genoa–Ventimiglia line, built mainly in tunnel. The new station replaced an old picturesque station on a single track line that ran along the shore.

Overview

The platforms

The San Remo Station building contains a ticket hall, waiting room, information office, kiosk and bar. The entrance building is connected to the platforms built in a tunnel by a long corridor, equipped with a moving walkway. Travel time is approximately 15 minutes. The station has two platforms connected by an underpass.

Notes

(The old station had 3 tracks)

gollark: It's low-level and thus wildly annoying and unsafe.

gollark: Not C. C bad.

gollark: Python probably? It's considered beginner-friendly.

gollark: Boot into a Linux install/live CD of some sort, and try mounting it.

gollark: Because of some design flaws the RGB ended up overheating the SSD's controller, on one of them, making it throttle a lot.
