RECYCLING HISTORIC RAILROAD STATIONS: A CITIZEN'S MANUAL

This manual is to assist individuals and local governments interested in undertaking railroad station recycling in their own communities through reports on eight historic stations which have been preserved. The publication discusses basic guidelines for successful projects, and feasibility. The manual raises issues which must be resolved during the reuse process and poses possible solutions to these as they apply to particular types of projects. Potential is also addressed for the inclusion of intermodal transportation centers in recycled stations.
