The station is located in the southeast of France, northeast of downtown Toulouse. The station is an important railway hub in southwestern France, where three railway lines meet.

Platform

If your train arrives or departs from stations 2-11 (most long-distance express trains use 2-7), you must use stairs to transfer between the train and the exit.

This is because the two passenger passages below the platform are connected to the main building. These devices are currently being renovated, but no escalators have been installed to facilitate access to the train.

The main access method in the station area is the elevator access, but only for those who need mobility assistance and needs to be arranged in advance.

Stations 1, 1a and 1b can enter the main building directly and exit to the street, but stations 1a and 1b are only 3-5 minutes away from the main entrance as they are located at the end of station 1.

In fact, in addition to sausages and pigs, the local specialties include schnitzel, apple wine (Apfelwein), green sauce and cheese (Handkäse mit Musik). Don't be misled by the name "Music with cheese", think it is a cheese that will play music. In fact, the music here refers to the seasonings of cheese mixed with onions, vinegar and other ingredients. It is said that this wonderful mixture will produce some kind of gas after the lower belly, so that your body begins to sing.

S-Bahn's operating hours are generally from 4:00 to 1:00 am the next day, but the interval between each shuttle is longer than the U-Bahn.
