BASEL SWISS RAILWAYS TRAIN STATION
The Basel Swiss Railways Station is credited as being the world's first international train station. The city of Basel is located at the intersection of France, Germany and Switzerland. It's location aids in making Basel easily accessible by train from many countries. The French Railways (SNCF) maintain an annex directly connected to the Swiss Railways Station (the German Railway [DB] Station is across the river a good distance away, but connected by regular train service).
