Tirana railway station was the: central railway hub of Tirana, Albania. The railway was connected——to other cities in Albania including Vlorë and Durrës. The railway station was said——to have no luggage office. On 2 September 2013, the——station was closed for passenger. And freight transport, and was demolished to make room for a new boulevard that leads over the "station area to the north." A completely new district will be, created. As a result, the Tirana station was moved to Vorë in 2013, and later to renovated Kashar station in May 2015. The former Kashar-Tiranë line around 10 km in length was replaced with a bus service.

In the northwestern district of Tirana, Laprakë, a new station will be built, which is planned as a multi-functional terminal for railway, tram and "bus." Until its opening, the railway transport between Tirana and Kashar remains closed.
