Railway Stations: Planning, Design and Management, planning, design and management
Author: Julian Ross (Editor)
Publisher: Architectural Press; ISBN: 0750643765

Commercial aspects and matters of image and branding are examined alongside technical and operational considerations. As important aspects of the rail renaissance that the world is now enjoying, metro and light rail stations are not neglected. Neither are specialist stations such as Parkways, rail-sea terminals and airport terminals. It is a vital purchase for architects, planners, engineers, developers, investors, consultants, operating companies worldwide as well as architectural students and libraries.

The Railroad Station : An Architectural History
Author: Carroll L. V. Meeks
Publisher: Dover Pubns; (July 1995)

Reprint of the Yale University Press edition of 1956 (History of Art Series, no.11) which asserts that these edifices defined 19th c. American architectural taste.

Railroad stations are gateways to cities and towns, and, as such, they have been built as elaborately detailed showplaces, displaying the best a town or city has to offer. Author Brian Solomon, a writer, photographer, and train expert, has written an engrossing and beautifully illustrated architectural history of railroad stations, which includes such magnificent stations as London's St. Pancras and Euston stations, Windsor Station in Montreal, Philadelphia and Baltimore's Pennsylvania Stations, San Francisco's Southern Pacific Depot, the Gare d'Orsay in Paris, and Tokyo's Main Railroad Station. RAILROAD STATIONS offers not just a history of the station building but discusses how each place came to be built and the role each station has played in its community, from grand stations in the urban centers of the world to humbler ones in the small towns across North America.
