The southern building (37°56′53″N 23°38′36″E / 37.94806°N 23.64333°E) is the present terminus of Athens Metro Line 1, formerly the Athens-Piraeus Electric Railways that opened in 1869.[1] The northern building (37°56′57″N 23°38′33″E / 37.94917°N 23.64250°E) is the railway terminus for standard gauge railway services on the main axis to Thessaloniki via Larisa and for the Proastiakos to Acharnes Junction and Chalcis.[2]
