Arnhem Centraal Station is the central railway station of the city of Arnhem, the capital of the Dutch province of Gelderland.
The station is an important hub in the eastern Netherlands and in rail traffic with Düsseldorf (D), Utrecht, Zwolle, Nijmegen, Tiel and the Achterhoek. Moreover, it is an interchange hub for city and regional transport in central Gelderland.
The current station building is the fourth station at that location. This building, designed by Ben van Berkel, was completed in 2015.
Arnhem Centraal was the 14th largest station in the Netherlands in passenger numbers in 2016, with about 40,000 NS trains boarding and disembarking each day (not counting passengers from other rail carriers).
The structure supporting the scaled roof, christened by the architect "The Fronttwist" popularly called "The Wokkel".
The platforms are accessed via a corridor/hallway under the tracks, with an entrance on the south side, and on the west side via a traverse above the tracks, with an entrance on the north side (Sonsbeek side).
I took this photo in the hall from above.
Nice of you to check out my work.
I like to photograph everything I come across and find interesting. I often edit my photos afterwards with other materials until a new image emerges.
