Probably one for underground metros, but I wondered if there were any 'interchange only' stations around the world, i.e. a station where two lines cross, and you can change, but has no entrances or exits to the outside world (apart from the inevitable fire escapes).
Does such a thing exist anywhere?
Has anyone ever proposed building such a thing, in a specific place, for specific reasons?
I can imagine reasons such as there being no room for buildings at ground level, or the lines crossing in a place that has other surface routes or is in a very awkward location (e.g. under an airport?).
Perhaps the cost benefit ratio of building a surface entrance is almost always positive...
