Railway terminus
A railway station is a place where trains make scheduled stops. Stations usually have one or more platforms constructed alongside the railway line. Railway stations and their platforms come in many different configurations, influenced by such factors as the geographical nature of the site, or the need to serve more than one route, which may or may not be connected, and the level of the tracks. Examples include:
This page presents some examples of these more unusual station layouts.
The particular geography of a line may lead to the station being built below the level of the adjoining terrain (in a cutting or inside a tunnel). If a station is in a tunnel, it is usually because the station has been constructed beneath the city to serve the city centre, or because the station was originally in a cutting which has subsequently been built over. Examples of individual tunnel stations (i.e. not forming part of a complete metro, suburban railway or underground railway, system) are:

Some new underground stations are planned on new underground railway lines in both (Citybanan) and Gothenburg (Västlänken). A station under Göteborg Landvetter Airport is also planned as a part of a new high-speed line between Gothenburg and Borås.
