Milan Central Train Station-Map

I have not been to Milan, but am traveling there in June. The train station is impressive! Refer to a picture of the front of the train station, easy to find on the internet. This hotel site has a good picture: http://www.hotelgonzagamilan.com/ I could not find a diagram. There are three main entrance porticos. I would choose to meet outside in front of the central one, near the fountain. If it is raining, I would meet inside the central portico. Just my two cents.

Was there in December everyday for 4 days and you should know this is not only the train station but has passengers from the subways as well. This is a huge station like Grand Central, I wonder must you meet at the station? See http://www.grandistazioni.it/cms/v/index.jsp?vgnextoid=3b9272ceeae7b110VgnVCM1000003f16f90aRCRD
If so, then perhaps you could meet at a restaurant - click on the eat and drink link on the left. I looked at the Time Cafe - not sure I remember it- and it appears to have some seating nearby. Standing near a portico sounds like agony to me, I'd much rather sit in a cafe and wait.

Ryan, That's not a huge problem, and there are several possibilities, depending on how long you'll have to wait for the other couple. The track layout at Milano Centrale is much the same as many other European stations. The tracks end at a common point so passengers all have to walk towards the front of the station. The first possibility would be to simply agree to meet at the ending point of (for example) Track 10. If you know which train they'll be arriving on, you may be able to determine which Track No. it will arrive at. Use the end of that track as the meeting point. They would have to walk right past you, so it's unlikely you'd miss them. The first method involves waiting in the arrival area, so you'll have to endure the insufferable, repeated advertising messages on the LCD T.V.'s in that area. If you'll be waiting for awhile, you could always go down two levels on the moving sidewalks, as there are some small Cafés there where you could buy a Panino, Pizza, Coffee or whatever. Be sure to watch your luggage and wear a Money Belt! Finally, if a WC is required, it's one floor down on the moving sidewalks, and there's a €1 charge. Happy travels!

Good idea to have a meeting point as the station is huge and multi level. You could pick a cafe from the list, but it might be simpler to meet on track level, at the head of a designated track, such as Number 6. The tracks are all lined up and numbered from left to right as you face them, so 6 is very easy to find.
