Ceres Train Station

Ceres station is the terminus railway station of the Turin-Ceres railway. It serves the municipality of Ceres and the adjacent municipality of Cantoira.  

Built like all the stations of the mountain section of the railway according to the project of Eng. Alberto Scotti in 1915, is a three-storey masonry and reinforced concrete building with a wooden pitched roof and cover, rebuilt in the early 2000s in Lose.  

Similarly to other stations of the line, on the ground floor of the station, built in Art Nouveau style following the model of the "Swiss chalet", there is a large entrance with ticket office, waiting rooms for the first (equipped with a stove for winter heating) and second class, the luggage deposit office and the station master's office, while the upper floors house the accommodation.  

The station is devoid of rail traffic. Until June 2023 served by four pairs of trains of line A of the SFM, i.e. the Ceres-Turin Dora station section; during the summer school closures the trains stopped in Germagnano, being replaced by buses.

Someone who lives in an apartment where he can see the railway everyday from above once told me, every time he looks at the railway,  it makes him sad, because it represents departure. Well, it brings in and brings back many people too, that's what I told him.

I told him, they also have the significance of arrival....
