Halkali station, Türkiye

Charming Halkali Station proudly boasts the title of westernmost railway hub in Istanbul, serving not just famous YHT high-speed trains but also a few international routes. The station has two platforms and four tracks and operates trains to such popular European destinations as Bucharest, Belgrade, and Sofia. Halkali Station is a vital part of the Turkish railway system, as, for years, it was a departure terminal to all freight trains to Europe. But this era is coming to an end. Instead, the station is expected to grow to be the main high-speed railway station on the European side of the city!
