History

Kazlıçeşme station was opened on 4 December 1955 by the Turkish State Railways as a stop on the Istanbul suburban line. The original station consisted of an island platform with two tracks, located above Zakirbaşı Street about 270 m (890 ft) west of the contemporary station.[2] Kazlıçeşme was chosen as the western portal of the Marmaray tunnel and the construction of a new station started in 2011. The new station had the same platform design, but added a third track for passing intercity and regional trains. Nearing the completion of the tunnel, Kazlıçeşme station was closed on 1 March 2013 and demolished shortly after. Seven months later, on 29 October 2013, the new Kazlıeşme station opened as the western terminus of Marmaray trains from Ayrılıkçeşmesi in Kadıköy. However, due to contractor issues, phase II of the Marmaray project was delayed, effectively cutting off Kazlıçeşme from the rest of the national rail network for a few years until work restarted in mid-2016. Once phase II completed on March 12, 2019, Kazlıçeşme is a stop on the Halkalı to Gebze commuter rail line.
