This is the year I first came to Milan, station looks different there's no shopping area at the front atrium back then. Way more beautiful.

Something I noticed is that in EU, shops form on transportation stations. Locals come hang out in train station even when they’re not traveling. The stations are not walled off with highway structure for automobiles so it’s easy and pleasant to walk by. It’s not very common in US aside from the east coast Tristate area to see malls inside, but in those structures are so ill kept.

La mia stazione preferita...

I was coming thru to Milan from Rome in 1985. My Porter on my first class train helped me off the train with all my luggage. I was supposed to get my connecting train to Geneva. As we disembarked, he started running down the station With all my luggage. I was so mad. I took off after him and just as I was about to grab his scruffy neck, he dropped My three pieces of soft luggage and went and hid in between the trains. I actually saw him peaking thru to see what I would Do. Well it was lunch time and no Police! I just grabbed my stuff and went to get my train. He really unnerved me and I missed my connection for the fast train. It took me over 7 hours to get to Geneva on a local train. I was furious but Milan is known for pickpockets and thieves. You’ve been warned. The train station itself was beautiful.

Antique and beautiful.

I posted this also on the Roma Termini video... I just wanted you to know you have an international appeal! I've camped out in this terminal a time or two after a very late arrival, missing a connection on to Roma/Napoli/Sorrento, and then continuing on early the next morning. A few times I wandered out and used the opportunity to explore a bit and discovered the charm of the late night city. I love Milano when the thousands of tourists and shoppers aren't jamming the streets. To wander the city without the crowds is amazing.

it was the "terminal station" concept vs "transit station" : one huge array of rails direct into the city instead of peripheral station , you must think like an ancient last 19 th century architect considering the northeast side of Milano mainly " industrial estate" and economic earth of the city.

trainrover ...From Wikipedia: Fascist architecture is a style of architecture developed by architects of fascist societies in the early 20th century. The style gained popularity in the late 1920s with the rise of modernism along with the nationalism associated with fascist governments in western Europe. The style resembles that of ancient Rome. However, the fascist-era buildings lack ostentatious design, and were constructed with symmetry and simplicity. Both Benito Mussolini and Adolf Hitler utilized the new style of architecture as one of many attempts to unify the citizens of their nations, mark a new era of nationalist culture, and exhibit the absolute rule of the nation.[1] Today, new fascist architecture is scarce because of the Axis powers' defeat in World War II, as the fascist political ideology quickly went into decline.

Surely that architecture mustn't have been called Fascist back in the day, right? And hadn't the dawn of the 1930s occurred before the advent of Fascismo anyhow?

Raffaele Arecchi , not really, these malls and restaurants inside these old Stations sustain the building, pay the bills for upkeep. These old train stations are high maintenance and take a lot of money to maintain. Otherwise the building would be an empty dark shell wet cave with no life in it at all. If not they'd be razed to the ground and just empty platforms would take their place.
