Introduction

The Lausanne train station can be regarded as the most beautiful large station in Switzerland. Basically, most Swiss people agree with this statement, the most important reason is based on its artistic style.

It is located in Lausanne, Vaud, Switzerland, and is an important regional station. The Lausanne train station is a transit train station located at the junction of the Lausanne-Geneva railway, the Lausanne-Olten railway and the Simplon railway. The trains at the Lausanne train station are mostly operated by the Swiss Federal Railways, as well as international trains in France, Germany, Italy and Spain.

Although the Lausanne station is about to enter the main phase of the new building, it will not be completed until at least 2020. It will allow more local trains to get in and out of the station and strengthen the subway.

There are currently two passenger passages below the railway line, located on either side of the main station lobby. The passenger passage from the East Wing Hall can lead to stations 3 to 8. The difference from other passages is that the elevator can be used to go straight to the platform; the passage on the right side of the hall has stairs to enter the platform 9.

If you arrive by train from the South (on a train passing through Bern or Montreux), the lift is behind the train; if you arrive from Geneva or Paris, the lift will be in front of the train.

The entrance to the subway is located opposite the departure hall, but it can also be accessed directly through the passageway in the East Wing lobby. With this route, you don't have to board the main building to enter the subway station.
