Edinburgh Waverley railway station from Haymarket, Waverley has been the principal railway station in Edinburgh. From 1870 to 1965 the city had a second major station, Princes Street, operated by the rival Caledonian Railway, but this was never as important as Waverley. As at other large railway stations of the Victorian and Edwardian eras, the railway company constructed a grand station hotel beside their station. The North British Hotel, adjacent to the station at the corner between Princes Street and North Bridge (on the site of the coachworks) opened in 1902. In 1983 British Rail sold it to the Forte hotel group. In 1988
Kingsway, Glen Waverley a hub for transport activity in the Glen Waverley area. The Glen Waverley Railway Station is the terminus for the Glen Waverley railway line. In January 2006, the Monash City Council agreed in principle to the redevelopment of the transport hub and began to negotiate with VicTrack Access to develop a mixed-use multi storey building located in the forecourt area of the Glen Waverley Railway Station. This development is part of the Victorian Government's "Melbourne 2030" plan. The redevelopment will include a multi-deck car park, multi-story residential and commercial buildings and a pedestrian bridge or underground crossing linking both buildings.
