The Medina del Campo railway station is a railway station serving the Spanish city of Medina del Campo, in the province of Valladolid.
History
The original station opened in 1860. The first train from Valladolid opening the Valladolid–Medina stretch of the Madrid–Hendaye railway arrived on 3 September 1860, an event for which the locals had been summoned by means of a municipal ordinance dated from 29 August. It was expanded and a new building was inaugurated in 1902, under a 1896 project devised by Vicente Sala. The new station building, which followed the French-style used by the Compañía del Norte, was built just in front of the old station.
