Talk:Albany–Rensselaer station

Old Station isn't the old station

That picture that says Old Station is actually the Old Rensselaer station which is now Amtrak office space, the Old Albany station is actually across the river downtown.MartinDuffy (talk) 18:01, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

Whatever. As far as Amtrak's early riders were concerned, this was the Albany station. Daniel Case (talk) 21:31, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

Inter-modal?

Yes, when originally planned it would have been intermodal, having the bus station from Albany moved over to it as well as being a train station. But currently it is a train station only, it isnt intermodal when there is only one mode. Being on the CDTA buslines doesnt make it intermodal. Is there a ferry, airport, subway, or other connection directly at the train station that I'm not aware of?Camelbinky (talk) 22:34, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

Proposed move to Joseph L. Bruno Rail Station

I initially saw that the station had been renamed in October 2023 per this source, hence an initial bold move. But after it was redirected back, a discussion is more appropriate than a move war. Suggestions? HangingCurve^{Swing for the fence} 22:31, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

• Oppose: It is common for rail stations and other infrastructure to be ceremonially named. The vast majority of the time, the common name doesn't change. No evidence has been supplied that the common name has changed. Amtrak still uses "Albany–Rensselaer" on their websites with no mention of the ceremonial name.

• Oppose for all of the reasons noted by Pi.1415926535. We can talk about it some more if/when Amtrak changes the name. FFM784 (talk) 01:03, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
