    Columbia University Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation INFRASTRUCTURE IS CIVILIZATION: RECONSIDERING THE DEMOLITION OF PENNSYLVANIA STATION A4106.001: Advanced Studio VI, Spring 2016 Monday and Thursday 1:30-6:30 PM Professor Vishaan Chakrabarti Co-instructor, Ruchika Modi Penn Station ‘Renovation’ STUDIO BRIEF Since antiquity infrastructure has formed the physical expression of civil society, whether in the water “ghats” of India, the viaducts of Rome, the highly advanced ancient sewers of the Middle East, or the advent of high speed rail in modern Japan. Representing far more than technocratic systems, infrastructure speaks to the belief that society has the internal capacity for communal organization and investment, for recognizing that we benefit from collective design, construction and engagement. Design excellence in infrastructure is the expression of a societal belief in the collective over the singular, hence the notion of “foreground” buildings that we associate with our public libraries, museums, post offices, and train stations versus the “background” buildings that historically constituted private urban building stock before the culture of celebrity luxury architecture for private object buildings took hold. The Victorian train stations of Europe and its colonies, as well as the “City Beautiful” stations that succeeded them in the United States, were the apotheosis of the belief during the Enlightenment that infrastructure was a civilizing force, at times resulting in racial domination and colonial repression, yet simultaneously representing our first understandings of transit-oriented urbanity and the freedoms it engenders. The downfall of rail travel, particularly in the United States, represents the denouement of civil society as we defined it in the 19th and 20th centuries, as we moved from modernity to Modernism, from the train to the automobile.

  • Speech of Mamata Banerjee Introducing the Railway Budget 2011-12 25Th February 2011
    Speech of Mamata Banerjee introducing the Railway Budget 2011-12 25th February 2011 1. Madam Speaker, I rise to present before this august House the Revised Estimates for 2010-11 and the estimated receipts and expenditure for 2011-12. I deem it an honour to present the third Railway Budget under the kind guidance of the hon'ble Prime Minister. I profusely thank the Finance Minster for his continued support and encouragement to the railways. 2. As the hon’ble members are aware, the wheels of the railways continue to move 24 hours, all 365 days. Railway’s services are comparable to emergency services, required all the time. I am proud of the 14 lakh members of my railway family, who toil day and night with unparalleled dedication. I am also grateful to all passengers without whose cooperation and consideration, we could not have run this vast system. I have also received unstinted support from our two recognised federations and staff and officers’ associations. 3. Madam, rail transportation is vitally interlinked with the economic development of the country. With the economy slated to grow at a rate of 8-9%, it is imperative that the railways grow at an even faster pace. I see the railways as an artery of this pulsating nation. Our lines touch the lives of humble people in tiny villages, as they touch the lives of those in the bustling metropolises. 4. We are taking a two-pronged approach, scripted on the one hand, by a sustainable, efficient and rapidly growing Indian Railways, and on the other, by an acute sense of social responsibility towards the common people of this nation.

  • Speech of Shri Lalu Prasad Introducing the Railway Budget 2006-07 on 24Th February 2006
    Speech of Shri Lalu Prasad Introducing the Railway Budget 2006-07 On 24th February 2006 1. Mr. Speaker Sir, I rise to present the Budget Estimates 2006-07 for the Indian Railways at a point in time when, there has been a historical turn around in the financial situation of the Indian Railways. Our fund balances have grown to Rs. 11,000 cr and our internal generation, before dividend has also reached a historic level of Rs. 11,000 cr. With this unprecedented achievement, we are striding to realize the Hon’ble Prime Minister’s dream of making Indian Railways the premier railway of the world. Sir, this is the same Indian Railways which, in 2001 had deferred dividend payment, whose fund balances had reduced to just Rs. 350 cr and about which experts had started saying that it is enmeshed a terminal debt trap. You might term this a miracle, but I was confident that : “Mere zunu ka natija zaroor niklega, isee siaah samandar se noor niklega.” 2. Sir, the whole nation can see today that track is the same, railwaymen are the same but the image of Indian Railways is aglow. This has been the result of the acumen, devotion and determination of lakhs of railwaymen. Sir, the general perception so far has been that Railways’ finances cannot be improved without increasing second class passenger fares. But my approach is entirely different. In my view, improvements can only be brought about by raising the quality of services, reducing unit costs and sharing the resultant gain with customers. Therefore, instead of following the beaten path, we decided to tread a new one.

  • 1.1 Role of Railway in Transportation
    INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY & MANAGEMENT, MURTHAL SONEPAT E-NOTES SUBJECT: TRANSPORT ENGINEERING 2 SUBJECT CODE: CE-310B COURSE- BTECH BRANCH: CIVIL ENGINEERING SEMESTER 6TH CHAPTER NAME: RAILWAYS UNIT 1 (PREPARED BY: Mr. ANKUR CHAUHAN, LECTURER, CE) 1.1 ROLE OF RAILWAY IN TRANSPORTATION: Since its inception, Indian Railways has successfully played the role of the prime carrier of goods and passengers in the Indian subcontinent. As the principal constituent of the nation’s transport infrastructure, the Railways has an important role to play. a) It helps integrate fragmented markets and thereby stimulate the emergence of a modern market economy. b) It connects industrial production centres with markets as well as sources of raw material and thereby facilitates industrial development. c) It links agricultural production centres with distant markets as well as sources of essential inputs, thereby promoting rapid agricultural growth. d) It provides rapid, reliable, and cost-effective bulk transportation to the energy sector; for example, to move coal from the coalfield to power plants and petroleum products from refineries to consumption centres. e) It links people with places, enabling large-scale, rapid, and low-cost movement of people across the length and breadth of the country. f) In the process, Indian Railways has become a symbol of national integration and a strategic instrument for enhancing our defence preparedness. g) Railways make it possible to conduct multifarious activities like business, sight seeing, pilgrimage along with transportation of goods. h) It is suitable for long distance travel. i) Plays an important role in national integration. j) Railways bind the economic life of the country.
