 Train station - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Stations are often sited where a road crosses the railway: unless the crossing is a level crossing, the road and railway will be at different levels.
Train stations colocated with other transport systems such as trams and buses may also be referred to as interchanges, as may stations offering both metro/subway and heavy rail services.
A train station that is jointly used by several rail transport companies is sometimes called a union station, or an interchange station.

 24213.000427&ELEMENT_SET=DECL
The mobile terminal 33 may assist in determining which of the base stations is the most suitable for handover by providing to network 20 indications of the signal strength or signal quality from signals received by mobile terminal 33 from target base stations such as 23.
As the target base station may address a suitable switch in the existing communication path quickly and directly thanks to the explicit address information in the request from the mobile terminal there is a significantly improved possibility that the call is still pending at the chosen switch.
When a mobile terminal moves from communication with a base station in one cell (original base station) to another it is necessary to"handover"the mobile terminal to the base station (target base station) of the new cell.

 THE BROOKLYN TERMINAL STATION OF THE BROOKLYN BRIDGE.
The Kings County Elevated declined to use one end of the new station for a loop terminal, and a long passageway from the centre of the suspended gallery runs to their line on Fulton Street.
The original plan for the Brooklyn terminal was to have a loop system with a, fine stone station fronting on a plaza near the Brooklyn City Hall.
Consequently the Brooklyn road has the use of both ends, but one of the requirements made of that road is that passengers shall be unloaded or received at each end of the terminal station, so as to distribute the traffic as much as possible.

Indiscretion of an American Wife began its life as a romantic drama entitled Terminal Station, directed with extraordinary skill and sensitivity by neorealist filmmaker Vittorio De Sica and starring Jennifer Jones and Montgomery Clift as a visiting American housewife and her Italian lover.
Their tale was depicted against the backdrop of a hundred other stories and characters that De Sica presented in his 89-minute Terminal Station.
