Massa Marittima railway station

Massa Marittima railway station was an Italian railway station on the Massa Marittima–Follonica railway line, located in the village of Ghirlanda, serving the town of Massa Marittima, Province of Grosseto, Tuscany.

History

The station opened on 11 December 1902 along with the inauguration of the Massa Marittima–Follonica railway, which connected the town of Massa Marittima with the port of Follonica.
The station served as the northern terminus of the railway and was primarily used for freight traffic from the mines of Val d'Aspra to the Tyrrhenian Sea. The station also offered a passenger service for local traffic, which was suspended in 1933. During the war, in 1941, a makeshift passenger service was restored. The station closed in 1944, along with the entire line, and was ultimately declared defunct in 1948.
