Description
When the very first rail bridge spanned the Missouri River at the "Town of Kansas" 1869, it marked an epic transformation for not only the small trading post, but along with it, the entire nation. The age of rail brought travelers and treasure from East, West, North and South, and at the very center of it all – the town that was to become "Kansas City." This Beaux-Arts station opened on October 30, 1914, as the second-largest train station in the United States – second only to New York's Grand Central. The building encompassed 79,000 square meters, the ceiling in the Grand Hall soars to 29m high.

Fun fact: In 1917 with peak traffic during the first world war, 79,368 trains passed through the Station, including 271 trains in a single day.

STATS:
Passenger Station: 8 tracks - 16 possible platforms

MODEL - 6,204 traingles TOTAL
LOT SIZE - 24x24 approx

PLACEMENT NOTES:
For best results, level surface before placing. Derpy entrances can be avoided if the road is flattened before placement. No mods required, however Caternary replacer mod is suggested to get rid of the railroad powerlines. Anarchy can be used to take advantage of the carriage pavilion entrance on the left side of the building by placing a stretch of road through the carriage pavillion (refer to screenshots). :)

It is a beautiful asset, but it takes A LOT of work to get the intercity trains to stop. I disconnected and reconnected tracks at least 2 dozen times before a train would either stop or spawn. As said, its a beautiful building, but expect to tinker with it a while before it works.

Beautiful station, rated! Although the platforms should be at least twice as long, and extend beyond the platform roofs in both directions. Then in would have been perfect!
