Pirituba (district Of São Paulo)
Pirituba is a district in the subprefecture of Pirituba-Jaraguá in the city of São Paulo, Brazil. It is located in the northwestern side of the city. A person who lives in Pirituba is often called ''"piritubano"''. Pirituba's name origin is the juxtaposition of the Tupi language words ''piri'' (Southern cattail, a marshland plant of the Typha genus) and ''tuba'' ("many"). History In the 19th century, the lands where Pirituba now lies were occupied by coffee farms (Portuguese: ''fazenda''), such as Fazenda Barreto (owned by Luiz Pereira Barreto), Fazenda Anastacio (owned by Anastacio de Freitas Trancoso and later by Rafael Tobias de Aguiar), and Fazenda Jaraguá. In 1885, the São Paulo Railway opened a train station in Pirituba as part of the Estrada de Ferro Santos-Jundiaí line. When the owner of the Fazenda Barreto died in 1922, the land was split between his heirs. In the same year the farm's first share was settled, and in 1926 the second share was settled. Those tw ...

Side Platform
A side platform (also known as a marginal platform or a single-face platform) is a platform positioned to the side of one or more railway tracks or guideways at a railway station, tram stop, or transitway. A station having dual side platforms, one for each direction of travel, is the basic design used for double-track railway lines (as opposed to, for instance, the island platform where a single platform lies between the tracks). Side platforms may result in a wider overall footprint for the station compared with an island platform where a single width of platform can be shared by riders using either track. In some stations, the two side platforms are connected by a footbridge running above and over the tracks. While a pair of side platforms is often provided on a dual-track line, a single side platform is usually sufficient for a single-track line. Layout Where the station is close to a level crossing (grade crossing) the platforms may either be on the same side of the cross ...

Train Station
A train station, railway station, railroad station or depot is a railway facility where trains stop to load or unload passengers, freight or both. It generally consists of at least one platform, one track and a station building providing such ancillary services as ticket sales, waiting rooms and baggage/freight service. If a station is on a single-track line, it often has a passing loop to facilitate traffic movements. Places at which passengers only occasionally board or leave a train, sometimes consisting of a short platform and a waiting shed but sometimes indicated by no more than a sign, are variously referred to as "stops", "flag stops", " halts", or "provisional stopping places". The stations themselves may be at ground level, underground or elevated. Connections may be available to intersecting rail lines or other transport modes such as buses, trams or other rapid transit systems. Terminology In British English, traditional terminology favours ''railway station' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
