Chamartín Station

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Interior.

Chamartín is the name of a railway station in Madrid, Spain. It provides visitors and passengers with a mini market, a coffee shop and various restaurants, a pharmacy and movie theaters.

Over the Chamartín Station is the Hotel Chamartin, and down the stairs is also a Metro Station (Chamartin) for traveling to downtown Madrid .

[edit] Chamartín Station in popular culture

In early versions of the computer game series Pro Evolution Soccer the football team Real Madrid is referred to as Chamartín so as to avoid any legal implications for the game's makers, Konami. Usually, Real Madrid is called El Equipo de Chamartín (The Team from Chamartín) because Santiago Bernabéu Stadium is located in the Chamartín District. This is corrected in later versions of the game, once the developers had paid for the rights to use Real Madrid's name.
