Brussels-Congress railway station (French: Gare de Bruxelles-Congrès; Dutch: Station Brussel-Congres)[a] is a train stop on the North–South connection in the City of Brussels, Belgium. It is located at 25, boulevard Pacheco/Pachecolaan, near the State Administrative Centre. Opened in 1952, it served as a railway station for 50 years. In 2002, the ticket offices closed and it was downgraded to a train stop. With only few passengers a day using Brussels-Congress, plans were being made to close it completely. However, up to now, none has been executed.
