Description

The second stop on the line is at Central Railway Station, a metro station sharing its name with the main railway line station and which is located directly underneath it. This station is still under planning, but it will include an island platform, a side platform and a total of three tracks. Switches will be installed on both sides of the station so that incoming trains can use two of the three tracks from each side. The traffic flow can then be arranged either via tracks 1& 2 or 2 & 3. One track can also be used for pendel trains that don't continue all the way to Grassfield Bay.

The station will have a straightforward construction style resembling a low-budget station found in the eastern areas of the real system. Visually I'm going to use stations such as "Sörnäinen" and "Itäkeskus" from the real system as a guideline.

In the real Helsinki Metro, a station called "Rautatientori", literally "the railway's marketplace" lies just beneath the Helsinki Central Railway Station. The train's announcements
translate the station to just "Central Railway Station" probably for tourists convenience.
