Clarification needed

Latest comment: 9 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

The following sentence needs a little clarification:

The DeQuincy depot is one of three urban railroad stations, along with the Central Railroad Station in Shreveport, and the Texas and Pacific Railroad Depot in Bunkie (that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places in Avoyelles Parish, Louisiana), that still survives.

Does this mean that these three stations are the only three urban stations in existence in the United States? I can think of a number of urban stations built before World War II that still exist, such as Los Angeles Union Depot, Union Station in Chicago or Washington Union Station in D.C. Is the statement related only to urban stations in Louisiana? If so, what about New Orleans Union Depot? There are a lot of other stations on the NRHP across the country, many of which are in urban environments and could be called urban stations (St. Louis Union Station comes to mind here).
