Annex: Madrid Metro Stations

¹ This name only appeared in the project; the station was never in service with it. In the case of "Virgen de la Paloma - Valdezarza" the name "Virgen de la Paloma" appeared in the posterry of the works during the time they lasted, and was due to the proximity of an important Institute of Secondary Education.
² On April 29, 1931 the City Council requested the change of name of Isabel II by that of Arenal to the Ministry, but the change was authorized on June 24, 1931 by Ópera instead of Arenal. On January 30] of 1933 the City Council again asked to change its name by Fermín Galán, the name of the square then, but the Metropolitan Company opposed it.
³ In line 2 he always set “Manuel Becerra”. In the works of line 6 the name "Plaza de Roma" was arranged by the MOP in retro-lit posters that were from the end of its construction in the mid 1970s and until the opening day in October 1979. These signs were changed by other exacts with the definitive name.
⁴ This change was proposed by the Government team of the Community of Madrid, and much of the signaling of the Network was replaced by hiding it temporarily with vinyls, but this change was paralyzed after the City Council negotiations to dismantle the stadium whose name it would bear.
⁵ This change occurred after the opening of the Metro station at Terminal 4 of the Airport, to indicate which terminals of that airport served.
⁶ This change is due to the confusion that produced many tourists, as it was not easy for them to find that stadium, one of the main attractions of the city.
⁷ In 2013, the Vodafone telephone company acquired for a period of three years the appointment rights of the Sol station, which became known as Vodafone Sol on 1 June 2013. The company also acquired the rights on line 2, which became called "line 2 Vodafone".
⁸ This change occurs following the death of guitarist and composer Paco de Lucía. The Community of Madrid thus wants to pay a posthumous tribute.
⁹ The name of El Sacedal would be given to this station given the proximity to the metro cars of Line 9. This change was never made effective, and the name was changed to Mirasierra, because the expansion project to the then Costa Brava was parked by the crisis.
¹⁰ «The Metro de Campo de las Naciones station will be called Feria de Madrid».
¹¹ These changes are to avoid confusion between Metropolitano and Metropolitan Stadium and between the Atocha Metro and Renfe station, as they have no correspondence.
