Kallos Royal Park Station

Kallos Royal Park is a complex of two stations, a railway station and a light rail station. The railway station serves (or is planned to serve) as the terminus for the Fryske Line and Elizabeth Line. The light rail station serves as a major junction for the Lilac Light Rail, with trains departing from this station in four different directions. It was built in a style somewhat resembling the Elizabeth Line in London, due to the Elizabeth Line being the first line planned in this location.

Layout

The light rail station has 4 west-east oriented platforms, three of which serve trains going west, with the remaining platform serving trains going east. There is also a skipping track on the southern end of the station for trains that do not stop at Royal Park after leaving the LRT Depot station.

The heavy rail station has 2 west-east oriented platforms elevated on top of the station building, serving the Fryske Line. In the future, 2 extra platforms will be built underground to facilitate the Elizabeth Line.

Trivia

  • The construction of the Elizabeth Line was on hold for a while, which caused the stations to be built for other lines first instead. The stairwell to the Elizabeth Line can be found boarded off in the heavy rail concourse.
  • At the east end of the bridge features an orca tail sculpture with a crashed Amsterdam Metro train on top of it. This is a reference to Spijkenisse's Metro Rail Whale statue, known for the crash in 2020 where a Rotterdam Metro train ended up being saved from falling by the massive tail.
  • This station was the site of the opening of the Fryske Line, where close to 10 people boarded the first ever train in service.
