	Rail transport - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A railway (or railroad) track consists of two parallel rail tracks, usually of steel, generally mounted upon cross beams (termed "railroad ties" or "sleepers") of timber, concrete or steel.
		Rail lines that carry little traffic are often built with a single track used by trains in both directions; on rail lines like these, "crossovers", "passing loops" or "passing sidings", which consist of short stretches of double track, are provided along the line to allow trains to pass each other, and travel in opposite directions.
		The Leiper Railroad in Pennsylvania was the first permanent railroad, opened in 1810, and the Granite Railroad in 1826 may have been the first to evolve through continuous operations into a common carrier.

		As many of the bus stops as possible will be located just before railroad tracks, thus eliminating extra stops.
		There's a reason that railroad crossings always give the right of way to the train - the stopping distance for a train at running speed is too great to make it possible for trains to stop frequently or on short notice.
		If you said that you would build the railway-cum-bus station such that the railway tracks are side-by-side of the platform (bus on the left, train on the right), I would give it a +1.
