The U.S. Postal Service announced today many of the stamps it will issue in 2023.  This includes a set featuring railroad stations.  Noteworthy railroad stations that began brightening the American landscape by the 1870s and, although many were torn down once they had outlived their original purpose, hundreds survived. This issuance of 20 stamps features five architectural gems that continue to play important roles in their communities: Tamaqua Station in Pennsylvania; Point of Rocks Station in Maryland; Main Street Station in Richmond, VA; Santa Fe Station in San Bernardino, CA; and Union Terminal in Cincinnati, OH. Passenger trains stop at all of them except TamaquaDerry Noyes served as art director. Down the Street Designs created the digital illustrations and typography. The release date  has not been announced.
