Neos Sidirodromikos Stathmos (Template:Lang-el, literally New Railway Station, abbreviated on maps as N. Sid. Stathmos)[2] is an under-construction metro station at the New Thessaloniki Railway Station, serving Thessaloniki Metro's Line 1 and Line 2. It will serve as the western terminus of both lines and is expected to enter service in 2023.[3] Construction of this station has been held back by major archaeological finds, and it is designated as a mid-importance archaeological site by Attiko Metro, the company overseeing its construction.[4]

The oldest proposal for a metro station at this location goes back to 1918, when it was proposed as a terminus for a Metropolitan Railway line essentially running the same route as the current Line 1.[5] Neos Sidirodromikos Stathmos was also the terminus for the 1988 Thessaloniki Metro proposal.[6]
