Location
Edessa Location within Greece

The Edessa railway station (Greek: Σιδηροδρομικός σταθμός Εδέσσης, translit. Sidirodromikós stathmós Edéssis) is the railway station of Edessa in Central Macedonia, Greece. Built in the early 1890s under Ottoman rule, when the town was called Vodena, the station is located north of the city on the Thessaloniki–Bitola railway. It is still housed in the original station building. The is no footbridge over the lines, so passengers must walk across the rails.

Since 2007, the station is served by the Proastiakos Thessaloniki service to Thessaloniki. As of 2015, the station is served on a daily basis by three InterCity pairs between Thessaloniki and Florina and three Prostiakos pairs ending in Edessa.^[2]
