Firenze Rifredi railway station is situated in Via dello Steccuto, in the district of Rifredi in the north of the city.
The station features nine through tracks used for passenger trains. These are served by five platforms partly covered by canopies. The platforms are connected with each other by a pedestrian underpass.
There is no lift, and this causes severe discomfort to some passengers, especially elderly ones.
The station is served by regional trains direct to Prato, Bologna, Pisa , Livorno, Pistoia, Lucca, Viareggio, Carrara, La Spezia, Siena, Campiglia Marittima and Grosseto.
For many InterCity trains, both northward and southward, Firenze Rifredi is the only station in the city of Florence at which the train stops.
However, Eurostar trains stop either at Firenze Santa Maria Novella, or at Firenze Campo Marte.
The station has a bus terminal for urban buses.
