Brussels-South Railway Station

Brussels-South is one of the three major railway stations in Brussels and the busiest station in Belgium. It is located on the territory of the municipality of Saint-Gilles/Sint-Gillis.

The Brussels-Capital Region is bilingual; hence, both the French and Dutch names of the station are official. Outside Belgium, this often leads to the use of combined shorthands; for example in the Thomas Cook European Rail Timetable, Brussels-South is designated as Brussels Midi/Zuid; Dutch Railways announce the station as Brussel Zuid/Midi.

The station is also connected to the Gare du Midi/Zuidstation station of the Brussels Metro system. "Le Midi" is reference to Southern France as far end of the trains leaving the Brussels from this station.
