Verona Porta Nuova railway station
Verona Porta Nuova is the main railway station of the City of Verona. It is situated at ''Piazzale 25 Aprile'', south of the city centre and from there a 25-minute walk or 10-minute bus ride. This station was opened in 1852 and substantially rebuilt between 1910 and 1922. It was reconstructed again between 1946 and 1949 after being destroyed by allied bombings during the Second World War.
Verona Porta Nuova station provides major connections within Italy and Europe: it is an interchange on the east-west mainline Milan-Venice and the north-south mainline Brenner-Bologna, which reaches further towards Florence and Rome. The station handles 25 million passengers annually. Construction of a new high-speed railway from Milan has commenced in 2014; the Verona–Venice high-speed railway is currently under planning.
==History==
The first train to arrive at Verona Porta Nuova station, in 1852, was driven by the locomotive ''Verona'' on the new line from Venice, which had crossed the Adige (Etsch) river on a then-recently completed bridge. In 1853, it became possible to operate trains from Verona to Mantova/Mantua on a single-track line. In the same year, the Brenner railway was under construction by the Austrian Empire to provide a trans-alpine railway link between Lombardy-Venetia and Tyrol over the Brenner Pass at 1,371 m.
The initial station building was a temporary wooden structure in 1851; it was replaced in 1852 by a small masonry building. The masonry, however, had an odd shape: a part of its front had eight arched openings, which went further forward than the other part with only three. Upon its opening, the Porta Nuova station was less important than the Porta Vescovo station, which was located near a major Austrian military camp. At that time, Verona, called Bern-im-Wälsch, was one of the Austrian Empire's main military strongholds with a capacity of 120,000 troops. The Porta Nuova station was initially used only by the two of the three classes of passenger trains then in the region: "omnibus" and "mixed" trains. It did not handle the fastest, most expensive "direct" trains or offer any baggage service.
