Future Bay Area Rapid Transit Stations
The future is the time after the past and present. Its arrival is considered inevitable due to the existence of time and the laws of physics. Due to the apparent nature of reality and the unavoidability of the future, everything that currently existence, exists and will exist can be categorized as either permanent, meaning that it will exist forever, or temporary, meaning that it will end. In the Western culture, Occidental view, which uses a linear conception of time, the future is the portion of the projected timeline that is anticipated to occur. In special relativity, the future is considered absolute future, or the future light cone. In the philosophy of time, Philosophical presentism, presentism is the belief that only the present existence, exists and the future and the past are reality, unreal. Religions consider the future when they address issues such as karma, afterlife, life after death, and eschatology, eschatologies that study what the end of time and the end of the ...

Split Platform
A split platform, stacked platform, or separate platform is a railway station, station that has a railway platform, platform for each track, split onto two or more levels. This configuration allows a narrower station plan (or footprint) horizontally, at the expense of a deeper (or higher) vertical elevation, because sets of tracks and platforms are stacked above each other. Where two rail lines cross or run parallel for a time, split platforms are sometimes used in a hybrid arrangement that allows for convenient cross-platform interchange between trains running in the same general direction. Reasons for usage On the London Underground, to minimise the risk of subsidence, the tunnel alignments largely followed the roads on the surface and avoided passing under buildings. If a road was too narrow to allow the construction of side-by-side tunnels, they would be aligned one above the other, so that a number of stations have platforms at different levels. It is also sometimes used if ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
