Alexandroupoli railway station (Greek: Σιδηροδρομικός σταθμός Αλεξανδρούπολης, Sidirodromikós Stathmós Alexandroúpolis) is the main railway station of Alexandroupoli in Eastern Macedonia and Thrace, Greece.
The station is located in eastern Alexandroupoli at the Alexandroupoli–Svilengrad railway which starts at Alexandroupoli Port, some 500m further west near the city centre. Trains coming from Thessaloniki have to reverse for a few hundred meters to reach the station.
As of 2015, the station is served by a single InterCity pair from and to Thessaloniki, a daily regular train pair from and to Athens via Thessaloniki and by three pairs of regular trains to Dikaia, all on a daily basis. International services such as the so-called "Friendship Express" to Istanbul via Pythion however remain suspended since 2011.[2]
