Railway Stations
Railway stations were a prominent feature of most towns and villages in Britain until post-war modernisation and closures swept many away. The largest and most imposing stations were in large towns and cities.Among the most impressive were the London termini such as King’s Cross, Liverpool Street, Paddington and Waterloo.They handled and (still handle) millions of long distance and commuter travellers every year.Elsewhere, larger cities like Birmingham, Manchester and Glasgow often had more than one important station.Behind their imposing façades, they provided all manner of facilities for passengers – waiting rooms, bookstalls, refreshment rooms, luggage and lavatories.Meanwhile, country stations, especially those on branch lines, were an important part of rural life, providing a vital link for goods and passengers to and from the countryside. As the start and end point of millions of daily commutes, business trips, days out and family holidays, railway stations are undoubtedly among Britain’s most special buildings. This book is part of the Britain’s Heritage series, which provides definitive introductions to the riches of Britain’s past, and is the perfect way to get acquainted with the railway station in all its variety.

Are TV and radio stations obligated to broadcast news?
TV and radio stations are not legally obligated to broadcast news, but many choose to do so as part of their commitment to serving the public interest. In some countries, there may be regulations or licensing requirements that mandate a certain amount of news programming, but this varies by jurisdiction. Ultimately, the decision to include news in their programming is up to the individual stations and their management.
-
Which radio stations offer different knowledge, culture, information, and news content?
There are several radio stations that offer a variety of knowledge, culture, information, and news content. For example, NPR (National Public Radio) is known for its in-depth news coverage and cultural programming. BBC World Service provides international news and cultural insights from around the globe. Additionally, local public radio stations often offer a mix of news, cultural programming, and educational content tailored to their communities.
-
How do radio stations operate?
Radio stations operate by broadcasting audio content over radio waves to reach their audience. They typically have a team of DJs, producers, and other staff who curate and schedule the content to be aired. The station may also have advertising and sponsorship deals to generate revenue. Additionally, they may use technology to monitor and adjust their broadcast signal to ensure optimal coverage and quality. Overall, radio stations aim to provide entertainment, news, and information to their listeners while also generating revenue through advertising and sponsorships.
-
Why are only radio stations being displayed and not TV stations?
Only radio stations are being displayed because the user likely specified a preference for radio stations in their query. If the user wants to see TV stations as well, they can specify that in their search criteria. Additionally, the platform may be designed to prioritize radio stations based on the user's previous interactions or preferences.

Analysis of CSMA Based Broadcast Communication in Vehicular Networks with Hidden Stations
This thesis studies the congestion problem at the Medium Access Control (MAC) layer of the IEEE 802.11p system in highway scenarios using an analytical approach.Using the Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA) protocol, the IEEE 802.11p system suffers from the hidden station problem.This thesis provides formal definitions for the hidden station condition and the hidden station problem and develops an analytical methodology for CSMA protocols to investigate the interaction between stations in mutual channel sensing range and hidden to each other.Analytical models are developed for broadcast communication using the generic CSMA protocol and the IEEE 802.11p MAC protocol with a one-dimensional (1-D) homogeneous network topology.Simulation studies prove the accuracy of the models in analyzing the reliability performance and the efficiency performance of CSMA broadcast communication with hidden stations. The performance of Cooperative Awareness Message (CAM) in IEEE 802.11p network is analyzed for highway scenarios using the developed analytical models.The study reveals that in a hidden station scenario the reliability performance of the CAM broadcast communication deteriorates with increased topological distance between the transmitter and the receiver.This study provides quantitative analysis of this performance with respect to network density, frame length, traffic load and settings of the IEEE 802.11p MAC protocol.Analysis of the mean update interval of CAM at a receiver vehicle discovers though in general the performance degrades with increased network density, the update interval of CAM frames from a particular vehicle in the vicinity of the receiver, e.g. with a topological distance less than 8 between the transmitter and the receiver, can be easily maintained below 1 second by using control mechanisms like transmit power control, transmit rate control and link control.The analytical models developed in this work provide quantitative guidance on optimizing protocol parameters and utilization of these control mechanisms.

The Somme Stations
On the first day of the Somme enlisted railwayman Jim Stringer lies trapped in a shell hole, smoking cigarette after cigarette under the bullets and the blazing sun.He calculates his chances of survival - even before they departed for France, a member of Jim's unit had been found dead.During the stand-off that follows, Jim and his comrades must operate by night the vitally important trains carrying munitions to the Front, through a ghostly landscape of shattered trees where high explosive and shrapnel shells rain down.Close co-operation and trust are vital. Yet proof piles up of an enemy within, and as a ferocious military policeman pursues his investigation into the original killing, the finger of accusation begins to point towards Jim himself . . .

Soviet Metro Stations
Stunning photographs of Soviet Metro Stations from across the former states of the USSR and Russia itself, many of which have never previously been documented For us, said Nikita Khrushchev in his memoirs, ‘there was something supernatural about the Metro’.Visiting any of the dozen or so Metro networks built across the Soviet Union between the 1930s and 1980s, it is easy to see why.Rather than the straightforward systems of London, Paris or New York, these networks were used as a propaganda artwork – a fusion of sculpture, architecture and art, combining Byzantine, medieval, baroque and Constructivist ideas and infusing them with the notion that Communism would mean a ‘communal luxury’ for all.Today these astonishing spaces remain the closest realisation of a Soviet utopia. Following his best-selling quest for Soviet Bus Stops, Christopher Herwig has completed a subterranean expedition – photographing the stations of each Metro network of the former USSR.From extreme marble and chandelier opulence to brutal futuristic minimalist glory, Soviet Metro Stations documents this wealth of diverse architecture.Along the way Herwig captures individual elements that make up this singular Soviet experience: neon, concrete, escalators, signage, mosaics and relief sculptures all combine build an unforgettably vivid map of the Soviet Metro. The photographs are introduced by leading architecture, politics and culture author and journalist Owen Hatherley.
