Peschiera del Garda railway station is situated in Piazzale Stazione, on the eastern bank of the Mincio River, to the east of the town centre on the western bank.
From 1934 to 1967, the station was adjacent to another station, the FMP station, which was the terminus of a line from Mantua.
Features
The station has a large three storey passenger building. At ground level, there is a main entrance protected by an arched portico, and inside are the usual services to travellers. The upper two levels are used for offices and private residences.[4]
Three tracks pass through the station yard. Each of the outer tracks, one for each direction, is faced by a platform equipped with a wrought iron canopy. The platforms are connected with each other, and with the passenger building, by elevators and a pedestrian underpass. The inside track is used for any crossings or overtaking.[4]
In the goods yard is a goods shed now used for storage. The tracks in the goods yard have been removed and replaced with a parking lot. Other tracks are used for storage of line maintenance equipment.[4]
