"Since the world's first railway station, Darlington, opened in 1826, stations have always maintained a special place in the public's affection. The lure of the great railway terminus has always been especially strong: the breathtaking grandeur, swagger and opulence of the architecture inextricably fused with the dizzying prospects of adventure, romance, escape or challenge offered by far-flung destinations." -Steven Parissien, Station to Station
