The night train to Haifa does not stop at the station

(haipo) - Residents living in the neighborhoods of Bat Galim and Kiryat Eliezer in Haifa claim that they are harmed by the fact that the train does not stop at the Bat Galim station during the night on its way from Tel Aviv. Likewise, the transition from the train station to the Kiryat Eliezer neighborhood is closed in the late hours, which also affects the service they receive.


Does not make sense

Carmit Harari, who lives in Kiryat Eliezer, tells Lahi Pa: "We recently returned from abroad. During check-in, my husband told me that we would have to take a taxi, because the flight was delayed and we would not have a train home. Someone in line who heard us said that it didn't make sense , because he lives in Binyamina and he constantly uses the train when he returns from abroad, and it is the same route. It sounds strange to us, because we know that there are no trains at night.

between two neighborhoods

We entered the application, and surprisingly we discovered that he was right and there are indeed trains at night, but they skip the Haifa Bat Galim station and simply do not stop there. It's a puzzling thing, because Bat Galim station is one of the busiest stations in Haifa, and not only that it is one of the busiest - I can't understand the logic of leaving the stop at Hoof HaCarmel station, or Merkaz Hamona station - that nobody, or at least very few people, live near them, but on The station, which is located right between two large residential neighborhoods, should actually give up.

An unpleasant walk

Harari continues and says that the fact that the train does not stop at the Bat Galim station is not the only problem for the residents of the neighborhood. "Even on a daily basis, Kiryat Eliezer receives inferior service. For example, the train closes its gates towards Kiryat Eliezer even before midnight. "A friend who returned on the train that left Tel Aviv at approximately 23:00 p.m. and arrived in Bat Galim around midnight, discovered that the gates towards Kiryat Eliezer were in transit The underground, were already locked. She had to make the entire trip on foot, from the outer exit at Bat Galim and through the Dolphin intersection and reach the house, it's not a pleasant walk for a woman alone at night."

The advantages of living in the neighborhood

"One of the advantages of living in Kiryat Eliezer is the proximity to the train. This is a critical figure for us, because many of us work in Tel Aviv and use the train every day, and a lot. If the train is closed to us, that's what we call a 'deal-breaker.' It's time for the train managers to start listening To the residents whom the train serves, and to give them the service they are entrusted with."

Not stopping at all stations

The railway management responded: "The night trains do not stop at all stations, in Tel Aviv, for example, they only stop at Savidor station. In Haifa they stop both in Haifa Center and the Carmel Beach."

  1. It is completely unreasonable because the station is also used by the people to go back and forth to the Rambam Hospital!!! Really angry that this is how you would make a change

  2. I'm not surprised, the transportation here is a joke! And the trains on the interior are simply third world... there are no trains on Fridays to Ben Gurion, what is this supposed to mean? There is no one to talk to

  3. I don't understand what is the logic of not stopping at populated stations if they already provide service to Israel, so it will be perfect, especially Shabbat Galim is close to the two largest neighborhoods in Haifa, so what is the logic of not stopping 🤔

  4. The train does not stop at Bat Galim because the crossing has become a meeting place for the homeless and drug addicts who today hang out in the center of Carmel. But recently, a homeless man known as the Monkey Man walks around Hahorsha Street/Nashiya 35. He turns around and runs in the street. He returns to sit next to Tibi and make monkey noises.

    • And you must be from the state of Tel Aviv, which of course deserves everything.

  5. The problem is not with the train, there is no logic in leaving the 4 Haifa stations open with a staff for one train per hour. The municipality of Haifa/Egged should operate a more frequent and more logical night line service, with less winding lines, befitting the third largest city in Israel

  6. The problem of the failed transportation makes life in the country boring and therefore I am considering leaving

  7. The train spokeswoman's answer is in line with the passengers' needs. The lady who took the night train from Tel Aviv to Haifa stated that the Bat Galim station, where the night train does not stop, is crowded with passengers, while the Carmel Beach and Center Shemona stations are almost completely deserted during these hours.
    Perhaps the railway management should overcome the "small head" phenomenon, think big and provide a service that meets the needs of the passengers

  8. This question should be addressed to the Minister of Transportation through the Mayor of Haifa, who just last week hosted her in the city when she called to encourage travel by bus. It is not clear why in the summer season, which is an active tourist season, the Bat Galim station does not work during the night hours. Does this station serve thousands of people throughout the day? Folks, there is no reason not to act during this time.

  9. Greetings,
    And why are there no direct trains to her room except in the morning and in the afternoon without changing, it is difficult for older people like me to go down the stairs in Binyamina and go up again to the platform that reaches her room and the train is already waiting and you have to be able to get on it, yesterday I went to her room and the train in Binyamina was standing at the station with closed doors, if it wasn't for the man who was next to me and open the door I would have missed her, in my opinion the train in Binyamina should close the doors when it has to start traveling otherwise you miss her, I ask that there be a direct train to her room at noon and during other hours during the day and not a change in Binyamina, thank you for your inquiry

  10. Oh no, there isn't a direct train from Haifa to Tel Aviv, come on, what happened, take a car or a taxi like most of the country that doesn't have a direct train to Tel Aviv.

  11. Makes a lot of sense. The entertainment areas of Haifa - the port, the moshavah, the old commercial center are within walking distance of the Central Railway.
    At Bat Galim and Kiryat Eliezer the traffic is light, take a matron from the Central train two minutes to Bat Galim.
    There is a limit to indulgence.

    • There are no buses near the central train in Haifa and certainly no matron. It is not at all pleasant to walk to Maginin St. in the dark at night. Downtown in the dark?

    • There are taxis, there are night lines and there is also a matron near Central Railway.
      Whoever says that there is no one probably only lives inside his car, enough with the indulgence.

  12. There is no reason for the train to stop at Bat Galim, it is a night train that does not stop at all the stations and that is how it has always been, by the way. It's not just a "stop for two minutes", it requires running the station all night and that has costs.

    The busiest station in Haifa by a huge margin is the Carmel Beach, so it is clear why the train stops there. It is also one of the busiest stations in the country.

    It is also important to note that the matron works all night, so you can get off at the Carmel beach and take a matron.

    • Since when does the matron work all night?
      Soon you will write that she also works on Shabbat.

  13. What's the problem with stopping even so they pass through, the gates will be able to be closed say fifteen minutes after the last train for that day.

  14. Public transportation anywhere in the world is considered a "service provider" and stops at every station regardless of train, bus or metro.

    Israel Railways has not yet internalized the essence of public service on the train.

  15. What does Tel Aviv have to do with it... what kind of answer is this to train customers? The mayor who presented close ties with the Minister of Transportation should act to stop the night train at all stations!!!

  16. Not even stopping in the heart of the Gulf, it's time to serve everyone
    The night trains from its ports are also not treasured in the heart of the Gulf, it's time to serve everyone

  17. As if that's the only problem, the problem is bigger than anything. Why in Nahariya, for example, I want to get from Nahariya to Ashdod on a direct line like before. I could do it in the past. Now I have to change to the Tel Aviv University train. It's possible because they've been working there for more than 3 years and it's beyond all criticism, everything is just blocked. You can go to Lod from there and also why did they stop the Haifa Coast of Carmel line towards Migdal HaEmek and also why don't they build a train station in Tiberias or to Eilat that has been talked about for more than 14 years and also all the time I encounter strange phenomena at the Haifa Coast of Carmel train station where I used to work as a routine worker in a colony in Haifa I would have had to leave on the train an hour earlier because otherwise I would not have had a place to sit or the air conditioning on the train would hardly have worked

  18. Turn to the transport problem.
    Provided you vote for her in the primaries, maybe the rotten corrupt woman will agree.

  19. Mila doesn't stop. I got off at 06.15:0500 in the morning from a train that left Tel Aviv at XNUMX in the morning. They helped me take off a namazvada and when I got off, one foot on the ground, the train doors closed on my ankle. Luckily, I had a hand held by me and she started yelling at the person in charge who blew the whistle first, so that the train would start moving. He opened the doors and I got my leg out.
    Loli is the woman who specializes in me
    Nei falls to the ground and is dragged by the Sea of ​​Achab that Idor received to continue the journey. All this happened on 10/7/25 at the Carmel Beach train station.
    Caution!

  20. The train does not stop at Bat Galim so as not to disturb the noise of the start of the trip to the tenants who live close to the station. This is not an arbitrary decision, it is an informed decision.

    • An electric train does not interfere
      There is no connection between the train stopping and the train crossing. Wrong decision
      Service should go….. lem.

  21. This area is full of crime and delinquency and the tunnel was used by rapists and criminals so it is closed at night

  22. exactly!! I just dreamed for a happy moment that the trains were returning at night, because it was always a problem returning from Tabeg on evening flights, and then as a resident of Bat Galim it became clear to me that they skipped the Galim train station, the train stops one stop before at the Carmel beach and one stop after in the center of Hamona. I would be happy to know what the logical considerations are ?? What exactly is the problem with stopping for 2 minutes at a station where the train passes anyway??? So annoying, it's really unlikely

  23. The response of the railway management expresses disdain and condescension, after all the whole point of the article is that the rigged train does not stop at Bat Galim station, so what is the point of the response of the railway management, which repeats what is claimed in the article that "the train stops at the Carmel beach and in the center of the eight" what do the readers and commenters think Stupid?!

  24. There are no underpowered security guards in order 8, so some of the stations were not manned and priorities were made

    • Nonsense
      This is a successful method
      They will protest against - they will accept
      Why are there no priorities among the ultra-orthodox????
      There everything is ticking like clockwork ……
      If there is a lack of personnel, there are probably also a lack of drivers
      There is no line at the ultra-orthodox that has been cancelled!!!!!!

  25. I read the article and it's really ridiculous, the lawlessness is annoying, frustrating, it makes me sick to read such things that really don't make sense. I don't live in the area, but please those who give such stupid instructions and laws, please change and do justice, otherwise we are and how do we live without humanity ?????????,

  26. The crossing was closed at night because it was a place to sleep and defecate for the homeless and just criminals, which also led to a number of rapes over the years in the dark tunnel
    That's why it was closed.

    • To close??????
      Place police cameras
      Is closing the crossing a solution??????
      Maybe you'll make a little progress!!!!!

  27. The first thing is that it is not true that the train station at the Carmel Beach has no passengers at night. Everyone who travels to the center or alternatively to Israel and lives in Haifa gets off at or in the heart of the bay, and that is why the station is considered more central, in addition to the fact that the Carmel Beach station has more connections to the rest of the public transportation in Haifa.

    • So that you do your homework!!!!
      The same connections are found in Bat Galim and in the center of Hamona
      All populations must be served and therefore must be stopped
      Even in Bat Galim!!!!

    • Transportation to Emek and Nazareth
      From the Carmel beach there is a ?????-No
      At the eight station there is!!!!
      There is a matron at every station
