History
The RAI train station was built in 1981, opened with the railway line Weesp - Leiden and was temporarily the end point of this line. The station then consisted of a platform, with only one track. In 1988, the line was 51 of the Amsterdam Metro extended beyond the station, so the station was given a new platform as well as two new tracks for the metro. The extensions were commenced operations in 1990. The metro station is, however, about 10 m northwest of the station. There is no direct transfer possibility between the two stations. The old station building was replaced in 1991 by a new station with a central platform. The line was extended in 1993 until after Duivendrecht or Weesp.
