Modi'in Central railway station (Hebrew: תחנת הרכבת מודיעין מרכז, Tahanat HaRakevet Modi'in Merkaz) is an Israel Railways passenger terminal and one of two stations serving Modi'in (the other being Paatei Modi'in). It is the terminus of the Nahariya-Modi'in line, with service to the airport, Tel Aviv, Haifa, and Akko as well. An electrified connection to Jerusalem is currently under construction, with service expected in 2022. The station opened on April 1, 2008.
Modi'in Central is the first rail station in Israel that is completely underground. Covering an area of approximately 7,000 square meters,[2] It was the largest railway station in Israel until the opening of the Jerusalem–Yitzhak Navon railway station, which is eight times larger.
