I have heard that the biggest railway station of the world is in Shanghai!!!!

is ths the second station??
Simply AMAZING!!!!! The construction pictures are spectacular!
can't wait to see this one!!

Man, what an impressive n massive station, good stuff.
Very neat design. I don't see it being very space-efficient, though.
Now if they would only have a Hangzhou maglev running out of it. :)
Where in southern Shanghai is this going to be located? Anyone got the location on a map?
Another UFO for China.....great bytheway.

very nice !!!!!!!!!!!!!
GEEZ! Didn't know its almost complete I thought they're just starting to unearth the site. Amazing construction site, kewl station btw.
I like it. I think this will be an impressive station!
Weired......circular is not an ideal shape for a train station. Would the shorter trains be located near the edge and the longer trains near the middle?

From the first pic it seems that the dome is actually not hosting the trains, only some design feature:

Looks like the platforms are spanning out of the dome.
wow! When it is expected to be completed??
