Ferrovie Nord Milano Review

Excellent station, trains slightly late but acceptable

I think they have studied how to inflict harassment on users: the salon is crowded with passengers waiting to find out on which track their train will arrive, binary communicated at the last minute. Of course the train is late and waits ten minutes, twenty minutes or half an hour standing. Finally the track comes out two minutes before the train arrives: you cross the living room, down the stairs, arriving on the platform to see the doors closing and the train leaving. I can hardly imagine a worse station than this, if I can avoid it as soon as I can.

I would like to know who made the stairs outside the station ... the stair leaves something to be desired. however the station has good connections

Very convenient station for connections in northern Milan (routes for Saronno / Como Lago, Saronno / Varese, Saronno / Malpensa, Seveso / Asso.

Excellent interchange station. It would be excellent if the trains ran even before 6 in the morning, for people working on shift. But this does not depend on the station. However very large, cleanliness in order to be a station where many people really pass. Large parking area where you can leave your car on either side of the station.

Their motto should be "we work to offer you daily delays" is a shame, a attrition for those who cannot do without their even if poor service.

Very convenient railway station. Important junction between Milan and the suburbs.

Average station. In peak hours with just one ticket there is to be aged waiting in line. However there are a lot of connections, especially if you have to take the Malpensa Express (though the ticket is very expensive). Free bathrooms.

The bathrooms are never repaired and are often dirty. You cannot dry your hands for months. Good indoor bar. Clear signage. Convenient ticket office. There are lifts for the disabled and an access ramp from the street.

As a station it is comfortable thanks to the availability of seats, and a screen for departures, clean and controlled.
Excellent connections with different lines.

Comprehensive ticket staff. Trains on time, indeed even in advance. Unfortunately it is not announced and consequently ... lost.

has improved with the bar but the train boards always give the track 1-2 minutes before the arrival of the train, if you have a heavy luggage prepare to run.
there are only two ticket offices, one with an operator, usually slow, and one automatic, usually with a queue: you arrive in time especially if at the end of the month when the students redo the season ticket or during university hours. Ah, no toilets, hope the ones in the bar are open but are only accessible from the outside of the mezzanine. More could have been done to be an important station for the number of trains and passengers

Medium-sized urban station with basic rail service from 6am to midnight with connections:
- suburban (stops in all stations) every 15 minutes for Saronno in the north west, Cormano-Cusano in the north (with continuation for Camnago every half hour), for Cadorna (Milan center), for Rogoredo (and passing stations) towards south east (with continuation alternately for Lodi or Pavia, each half hour, therefore), reduction of the continuations to the hourly frequency in the evening after about 21 and on holidays
- direct to Malpensa airport (every 15 minutes), Novara (west), Varese and Laveno (northwest), Como (north) and Ace (northeast) each every hour (on the half hour reinforcements at peak hours).

Corresponding urban public transport service: bus and trolleybus 82 and 92 (tram 2 still reachable).
Another passer regional service station (Certosa) less than a 10 minute walk with other regional connections to the dial to the northwest of Milan and east (Pioltello and Treviglio).

Important car-sharing station, in particular electric, e-vai and electric car charging systems.

The electronic scoreboard with the departure times of the trains is turned towards the inside of the mezzanine, instead of towards the entrance of the station

very good station for exchanges throughout the northern area of Milan

Track displayed after the arrival of the train .... We are in Antalya

Station that I often use to reach Malpensa with the Malpensa Express.
Ample parking is always available, even during peak periods and times.
The real problem with this station is the total abandonment. A hangout for dodgy people, disastrous bar service and pitiful bathrooms.
Poor brightness.
In the evening it is better to be very very careful.

Station clean, well organized. Too bad no air conditioning, too hot in the summer to be a public service place.

Routes to Milan and north. Passante, Malpensa express, etc. Very hot in summer.

Station of great interchange of travelers that deserves more care.
Reasonable bar service and good idea of internal service.
Disastrous bathrooms with permanently open doors and a panoramic view from the outside: it's hard to understand how they can not intervene!

The train boards mark the arrival rails very soon; I wonder how those with motor disabilities do. At least the bathrooms are free, unlike Cadorna.

It sucks, like all trenord stations. Really bad bathrooms. The disconcerting thing is that the train track is indicated on the display boards on average 1/2 minutes before the arrival of the train. Sometimes even the moment the train arrives. Which forces us poor travelers and commuters to stand upside down in the hall looking up at the board, and then run down the stairs to the platform to catch the train. In short, the trains are the same every day! Always the same times, always the same cabbage trains !!!! A minimum of organization would not hurt, rather than haphazardly pulling the tracks a minute before the train arrives! But do you realize that we can run down the stairs, but how does a disabled person in a wheelchair go down a minute or less in advance?!?
I add that in the summer you are better in a microwave oven ...

Clean station, located a few steps from the Politecnico di Milano.

Well organized and clean visible monitors and supporting paper boards

Nodal point of exchange for the Milanese suburban lines. The lobby is spacious, bright and always crowded with people waiting for the trains, perhaps because the sidewalks are very narrow and the arrival tracks are announced at the last moment.

Discreetly clean and spacious (even the bathrooms) but poorly organized and poorly connected. The billboards carry the track just ahead of the arrival of the train (which happens regularly at least 3 minutes late not reported so no, you do not become stupid ... Be patient).
A regional and Trenord passers part, plus the tram lines in the square outside (5 minutes walk) the station is not connected to anything. No metro, nothing comfortable and roomy to get to the center. In case of strike Trenord (another frequent event) there is little to be happy.

Nothing so conditioners in summer seems to be in Cambodia. There is seating, a bar and a gatehouse of the police.

A little remote and on the edge of the Bovisa district, the destination is mainly for the Politecnico campuses.
There are often closed checkpoints and turnstiles, they also have free toilets inside the station, and a police counter, but I'm not sure it's active.
The place is a bit lost in the evenings and on weekends when there are no passing students

Piazza Alfieri is anonymously squalid, dirty: not even a comfortable or easy parking area where one feels abandoned and in danger. Surrounded by parked cars, uncultivated fields, walls full of menacing words, how can one feel? In a corner the plaque of a poor 17 year old who renews the pain of her family. The smile in the photo of the tombstone is the happiest thing in the whole miserable square.

Very convenient and clean. Many seats, display for timetables, there are machines and refreshment point. Ticketing both staffed and automatic. A little hot in summer but just sit on the benches near the tracks where more air circulates

Neat and clean
But
cold

"... Not before me created things
if not etterne, and I eternal hard.
Leave all hope, you who enter "...

And here we come by ship
an old man, white by ancient hair,
shouting: "Woe to you, prave souls! ..."

So without going up the brown wave,
and before it descended from there,
here too new s'auna ...

Good station in the northern part of Milan. From here you can easily reach Malpensa Airport and other suburban stations which connect areas inside and outside Milan.

Milano Bovisa polytechnic is a great station.
I propose:
- Metropolitan connection from Macciachini to Bovisa.
- Como Nord Lago train at 11.50 and 24.50
- Increase the space to park.
- Toilet paper is always missing in the toilets. Need for control.
Thank you !

Crossroads of trains with interchange between railway pass, Milan Cadorna, Varese, Como, Asso, Novara, Malpensa, Laveno, Camnago, Saronno. The actual station, on the upper floor, has several screens that can be consulted for schedules, tracks, destinations. Despite the high influx of travelers it is quite clean and welcoming; in addition to the ticket office there are various activities such as bars and newsagents. The lower floor, where the trains pass, is rather dark and dangerous: the space of the waiting dock is very limited, especially in conjunction with the stairs, the screens with time and destination are not very visible even if they are near the stairs.

The services are quite good. Trains go by: saronno, novara, malpensa, camnago, lodi, pavia, laveno, como and canzo-ace

A beautiful place, a place to see to understand how university geography is changing in Milan and its province.

It is convenient for those who are in the area and also for those who go to the Polytechnic University

Important station for those from the province to go to the city, is well organized and the two giant monitors allow you to see departures even when it is too crowded.
Too bad for the ticket offices, often too many queues and the automatic ones often don't work.
Overall very positive judgment

Bovisa FNM station excellent for connections with Malpensa expres, Como lago, camnago, Lodi, Saronno, Pavia, Rogoredo inside you will find both the ticket office and the ticket machine, the bar for breakfast and lunch there are lifts to go to the tracks with prams, and the tualet.

Very cold in winter; hot summer. Staziine really not very comfortable; poorly designed

Busy station but little updated, could be worthy of a restyling.
The 2 pieces of train thrown at random like museum works leave very little.

Very convenient station for those who do not want to or cannot go to the center of Milan, there are several connections for the hinterland countries. Inside there is a large and spacious bar with tables where you can stop for a break but even sofas to relax a bit, the staff is very kind even if overworked, the prices average. The only drawback is the Station, very dirty, poorly cared for, with no or inadequate seating for passengers waiting and only one ticket machine, when the ticket office is not open, the tracks for departures are announced a few minutes before with great discomfort of the travelers, who must literally run to catch the train. What to say? Comfortable yes, only for the connections but very uncomfortable and inhospitable for the commuters, it would take a different system, so it doesn't go. Ah, I was forgetting about the bathrooms ... well, forget them too !!!
