Terminal 58 at Brussels Airport, built for Expo 58 (pictured in 1974) After the liberation on 3 September 1944, the German infrastructure at Melsbroek fell into the hands of the British. When the old civilian airport in Haren became too small, the Belgian authorities decided to use the aerodrome at Melsbroek for the new national airport.
The airport is 4 nautical miles (7.4 km; 4.6 mi) north [1] of Charleroi and 46 km (28 + 1 ⁄ 2 mi) south of central Brussels. The airport is the second busiest in Belgium in terms of passengers and aircraft movements, having served 8,224,196 passengers in 2019 (82,043 movements).
The station was opened in 1958 in the old airport building, mainly for the 1958 Brussels World's Fair ().With the opening of a new airport terminal in 1994, the railway station was moved in 1998 to a new location inside the new building.

Diabolo project. The Diabolo project [1] created a new railway line serving Brussels National Airport.. It is so called because of its shape, resembling a Chinese yo-yo: the line forms a chord between the Brussels-Leuven line 36 going east and the new Brussels-Antwerp line 25N going north, and connects with them via a triangular junction at each end.
