Itsasbegi is a railway station in Busturia, Basque Country, Spain. It is owned by Euskal Trenbide Sarea and operated by Euskotren. It lies on the Urdaibai line.
History
[edit]The station opened as the northern terminus of the Gernika-Pedernales extension of the Amorebieta-Gernika line, on 15 March 1893. Between 1948 and 1949, due to the extension of the line towards Bermeo, the station was completely renovated.[2]
Name
[edit]The station is in the municipality of Busturia, but primarily serves the neighboring village of Sukarrieta (Spanish: Pedernales). As a result, the name of the station has changed at least five times throughout its history:[2][3]
- Pedernales (1893 to 1903)
- Pedernales, jurisdicción Busturia (1903 to 1941)
- Pedernales (1941 to 1961)
- Pedernales-Busturia (1961 to 1980)
- Sukarrieta (1980 to 1997)
- Busturia-Itsasbegi or simply Itsasbegi (from 1997)
Services
[edit]The station is served by Euskotren Trena line E4. It runs every 30 minutes (in each direction) during weekdays, and every hour during weekends.[4]
