Pello railway station
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Pello railway station is located in the municipality of Pello in the Lapland Province of Finland. It is located about 121 kilometres north from the Tornio railway station, and about 62 kilometres south from the Kolari railway station.
The track from Kaulinranta railway station to Pello was built in 1964, and in the next year, the track was extended from Pello to the Sieppijärvi railway station.
The Pello railway station serves both personnel and cargo traffic. The station is the only point on the track between Tornio and Kolari to allow trains to pass each other. The traffic control is handled remotely from the Oulu railway station.
The station is not to be confused with the Pello halt, a former halt located on the track between Helsinki and Turku.
