The name was given due to the Rautatientori (Railway) square, which in turn comes from the Helsinki railway station located on it.
It has a single exit equipped with 4 escalators and 2 elevators, which leads to the Asematunneli underground shopping center and through it to Helsinki Central Station . This is the only station whose name is announced not only in Finnish and Swedish , but also in English (Central Railway Station - “Central Railway Station ” and not “Railway Square”).
