Location

Loiola is a railway station in San Sebastián, Basque Country, Spain. It is owned by Euskal Trenbide Sarea and operated by Euskotren. It lies on the San Sebastián-Hendaye railway, popularly known as the Topo line. The Cercanías San Sebastián station of the same name serves the same area, but is unrelated to the Euskotren station.

History

The station opened in 1912 as part of the San Sebastián-Hendaye railway.[2]

The works to rebuild the original station started in 2015. First, the old station was demolished to make place for the new one, while at the same time the line was diverted to a provisional station.[3] The new station opened on 5 March 2017, and features improved accessibility.[4]

Services

The station is served by Euskotren Trena line E2. It runs every 7.5 minutes on weekdays and weekend afternoons, and every 15 minutes on weekend mornings.[5]
