Madrid

Atocha station (Estación de Madrid Atocha) is Madrid's largest followed by Chamartín station in the north. The station was inaugurated in 1951 and was subsequently expanded, in 1865 and 1892. The most notable feature of the work done in the latter year is the roof over the central section, behind this exterior. Designed by the engineer Saint-James and measuring 152 metres long by 48 metres wide and rising to a height of 27 metres, it has become one of the city's best-known landmarks.
