[quote user="henry6"] Era, area, and sentiment will go a long, long way in determining what any individual calls "the finest".  If  you've never been there, than how are you to choose.  30th St. has to be the winner in the east despite South Sta. Boston, GCT in NYC and Union Sta. in DC if only because it is still what it used to be and always has been.  Then, geography takes over, and you will pick by what is closest to your home imagination or what railroad(s) you like best.  For me, GCT, despite being only a commuter station today, still carries itself as the proud hostel of the Golden Age of Rail far overshadowing 30th St.  Hoboken Terminal in its restored and modernized version is still the only remaining Citadel to entering Gotham by having to leap the waters of the North River. But, yes, as you go west from there, again 30th St. looms its headhouse as being the only one still standing and in the glory of railroad use between Hoboken and, what, Chicago? considering the condition and uses of all those temples in between.  [/quote] Over the past 25 years I have been in and through every station mentioned in the article with the exception of King Street.  And I may get that done this summer.  I am planning to fly to Portland and take a Cascade to Seattle. 30th Street Station is a great station.  There is no doubt about it, and I can understand why Keefe nominated it as number one in the nation.  Come to think about it, I have been in 30th Street Station at least once a year for the last five years.  That's not too bad for a Texan.
