Gdańsk Stocznia is an SKM stop in Gdańsk, Poland. It is the second stop of this urban train line on the way to Wejherowo. This stop is not merged with any railway station. It has two platforms, out of which only one is still operating, as the second one (with one track adjacent) was operating the line to Nowy Port which is now closed. The ticket office used to be located on this platform, but the building has been pulled down for at least 4 years. An old, nonoperational signal box is located by the tracks servicing the line from Gdańsk to Wejherowo. The station is infamous for the December 1970 Events when scores of shipyard workers who disembarked at the station on the way to work were shot at by Milicja troops along with some military units on the orders of Zenon Kliszko; hundreds were killed or wounded.〔Magazyn Solidarność.

On the eastern side the bridge is connected with shipyard gate. An old Gdańsk Brama Oliwska (''Oliver Tor'') station building is placed nearby, not operational for a long time. Gdańsk Stocznia was once very heavy used, as most shipyard employees were using it. Now, that the shipyard is merely a shadow of its past prosperity the stop is even omitted by some night connections. Gdańsk Stocznia stop is not connected with other municipal transport lines, except for one tram stop. It does not provides access for any important city areas (except shipyard). The EMUs accessing the stop from Gdynia direction are often standing there for 3–5 minutes, waiting for the unit driving from the opposite direction to enter the platform, and release the place near Gdańsk Główny platforms. This stop used to be a common one for Gdańsk-Wejherowo and Gdańsk-Nowy Port lines until June 2005, when the latter had been closed. Some freight carrying trains are travelling on this line now. Standing on a platform, or watching from trains windows one can see the perspective of the ''Gdańsk Shipyard'', with cranes, other devices or even ships hauls. Not until few years age some slogans were seen on roofs and walls of shipyards buildings, mainly connected with 1980 events and the times of privatisation of shipyard. The station is infamous for the December 1970 unrest when scores of shipyard workers going to work were shot and killed by Milicja troops along with some military units. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gdańsk Stocznia railway station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
