The first Barreiro station can be seen in the background (the building with the big halls behind it, next to railway).
The second Barreiro station is at the bottom left corner, near the boats. Between the railway and water was a road with a bus terminals. Next to the station was the ferry terminal.
The rail yard seen here no longer exists. Approximately where the last tracks to the right were is now the third Barreiro station.
The bay to the right of the railway has now been turned into a big parking lot for the current transport terminal of the city.

Same place today - https://www.google.com/maps/@38.6538928,...try=ttu

To the left — current Barreiro station with CP 2265 servicing the Sado line.
To the right — previous (second) Barreiro station used from 1884 to 2008.
Placed at the old station are abandoned Talgo cars from Spanish RENFE (unknown numbers).
Everything between both stations was once a rail yard with about 15 tracks all demolished now.

This (the second) Barreiro station building built in 1884 and abandoned in 2008. Unofficially called "Barreiro-Mar" (eng. "Barreiro-Sea"), due to a not completed project from the 1930s of a different station called "Barreiro-Terra" ("Barreiro-Land") around the location where Barreiro-A is now.

Before closure it had 4 tracks (two of which entered the building hall). The station was terminal for many train routes to the south of Portugal (including Faro and Evora). It served as Lisbon’s main train station for routes to the south, before rail traffic was opened over the 25th April Bridge in 1999.
In 2018 process began to classify this building as a monument, but till 2024 it is not (yet) done.

The first Barreiro station (which now houses CP workshops) was built in 1861 and is located around 500 meters earlier on the line.

The third (and current) Barreiro station was built in 2008 and is located around 100m to the left (from this photo), closer to the current ferry and bus terminal, forming the "Terminal Rodo-Ferro-Fluvial do Barreiro" ("Road-Rail-River terminal of Barreiro" or just "Terminal"). It currently services only the Sado line (Barreiro-Pinhal Novo-Setubal-Praias do Sado-A). During the reconstruction and modernization of the line it received new stations (for example, Barreiro-A) while all existing station got rebuilt. The Barreiro station was the only one that got moved so far from it's original location (of the second station).

Цитата (MrVit202, 04.08.2024):
> Вообще непохож. Это Штадлер.

Ну ОК. Я бы даже сказал гибрид Флирта и Экр1.

At least the color scheme is better than the one they had a few years back - https://railgallery.ru/photo/184430/ (some might still have it)

To be honest the design of this series and the 3200 series (https://railgallery.ru/photo/222258/) is "weird". 2200 looks "angry" and "annoyed", while 3200 looks "stoned" :D

Only 3400 (https://railgallery.ru/photo/221689/) and 3500 (https://railgallery.ru/photo/252838/) series look good, but it is what it is. :D
The 3500 series color scheme used by CP (https://railgallery.ru/photo/221711/) reminds the German DB a bit too much for my liking though.

I'm talking about the appearance of the electric train. Design. In my opinion it's ugly.

What's wrong with the angle of the photo?

A lot of other photos on this site are taken from the opposite platform. Not sure what's so surprising.

Даааа! Вот здесь https://railgallery.ru/photo/136542/ ещё куда ни шло, но с такого ракурса! Author, if you don’t understand Russian, then I’m surprised by the very unusual appearance.
