Date: 01/10/23 19:37 Re: Valencia North station Author: Steinzeit2 This is a Public Service Announcement to those over the age of ______ [ insert number here if applicable ] who were confused about this station as I was: This is what was for many years named Valencia Termino, at least to non-Valencians. It was originally named Norte after the railway that built it, but probably after RENFE-ization it became Termino. While one could still find references to Norte -- for example, the Valencia map insert in a 1965 Cook's shows it as Termino (Norte) -- D. Trevor Rowe's Railway Holiday in Spain of 1966 or Spanish TT of the early '70's, as examples, referred to it only as Termino.
This station is on the south side of the city centre; "Valencia North" made me think the Central of Aragon's Alameda had come back from the dead..... Best, SZ Date: 01/22/23 12:24 Re: Valencia North station Author: Waybiller 86235 Wrote:
