Intermediate station that was located inside the Great Apennine Tunnel, later decommissioned for reasons related to safety but also to impracticability as it is difficult to reach and in an uncomfortable way along a long staircase consisting of hundreds of steps inside some inclined wells, with outlet at Ca 'di Landino, an intermediate fraction between Castiglione de' Pepoli and Baragazza

Ah, how I wish it would be reopened to the public! (and not just me) ... It would be a fair, albeit small, recognition to those who shed blood and sweat to achieve the Direttissima in the years between 1913 and 1934, 99 fallen in total, far more than the Italicus Massacres and del Rapido 904. A marvelous station, because it is the only one in the world, leaves us amazed as it is "in the bowels of the earth". 1863 steps inside the "wells" to arrive at the former underground station called "Precedence", today a simple 'communication post' obtained about halfway up the Grand Gallery of the Apennines, to the progressive kilometer of 46.848. Moreover, reopening it would inaugurate a "railway tourism" understood not as in the utilitarian sense - that is, using the infrastructure because it serves - but in making it the object itself of the visit, like a monument, a sculpture or the canvas of a famous painter. We must be proud of Our Heritage, be it artistic, historical or technical-industrial, not only always criticize.
