Pozzuoli Solfatara is a station of the Naples metropolitan railway service, located in the municipality of Pozzuoli, in the Metropolitan City of Naples. Together with Napoli San Giovanni–Barra, it is a terminus of Line 2, and it is situated on the Passante Ferroviario di Napoli.

History The station entered service on 20 September 1925, with the opening of the metropolitan section ending at Gianturco.

Station building The station has five through tracks for passenger traffic. Two of them are used by trains that pass through or only stop here, while the other three serve as the terminus for metropolitan trains. There are three platforms, connected by an underpass. The station is classified by RFI in the "Silver" category, and is currently being restored as part of the Pegasus project. The station also has a freight yard, which is no longer in use because no freight service is operated.

Passenger and train movements Passenger traffic is high throughout the day. Metropolitan trains to Napoli San Giovanni–Barra depart from here and, although on different platforms, regional trains to Napoli Campi Flegrei and Villa Literno also stop at the station.
