Padone Station was a railway station on the Jelgava – Liepāja Railway.[1]

History

Padone Station was opened in 1930, shortly after the opening of the Jelgava – Liepāja Railway.[2] Initially, a wagon was used for passenger needs, but the station building in Padone was built in 1939 (architect Jānis Šarlovs). In 1945, there was a station with four switches here.[3] The diesel train Riga–Liepāja have been stopped at Padone Station until June 15, 2001. Since 2001, this station has been unused. The station has been demolished today.
