In this assignment, thedesign of an additional station in HS2in terms of location and layout, as well as the designof track layout, are proposed. This proposal takes various factors into consideration, including cost, duration, access of passengers, and attitude of local communities, etc.Chapter 1 gives a brief introduction of this assignment, including motivation, scope and basic structure. In the second chapter, the background of railway track systems and infrastructures (including the history and recent advances) is presented to help readers establish a basic understanding of these systems. Afterwards, the location and layout of an additional station in HS2 are proposed in Chapter 3, followed by the design of track layout in Chapter 4. Finally, a conclusion is drawn based on the design and analysis presented, followed by suggestions on further development of the design proposed. This report serves as a good example for future designof stations and track systems.
