The train services are operated by Trenord and Trenitalia.
Location
Bergamo railway station is situated at Piazza Guglielmo Marconi, at the south eastern edge of the city centre.
History
According to the Central Statistical Office of the FS, the station was opened on 22 April 1854, upon the inauguration of the whole of the Bergamo–Brescia railway. However, another source says that the Bergamo–Brescia railway was opened only in stages. According to that source, the Coccaglio-Brescia and Brescia-Verona sections both become operational on 22 April 1854 and were formally opened two days later, while the connection to Bergamo was not completed until 12 October 1857.
Features
The passenger building is connected with the seven through tracks and two platform docks of the station yard by a small pedestrian underpass, which also connects the station with Via Gavazzeni, near a school campus.
The underpass was finally opened in autumn 2008, almost fifty years after it was first proposed.
