Mankki railway station (Finnish: Mankin rautatieasema, Swedish: Mankby hållplats) is a station on the VR commuter rail network located in Espoo, Finland, between the stations of Kauklahti and Luoma. The station has two tracks, with track one serving trains towards Kirkkonummi and the other towards Helsinki. The platform in the direction of Helsinki is a very rare wooden pier. Mankki is the least used station in the Espoo area, with only 60-100 passengers per day. Because of very low number of passengers, the station will be closed from 27 March 2016.[1]

Connections

Only the U and early morning/late night L trains between Kirkkonummi and Helsinki stop at Mankki giving approximately an hourly service, but the faster S trains do not stop. The regional Y trains between Karis and Helsinki also pass through the station non-stop.
