Railroad Stations (US 2023)
Announced by the USPS on October 24, 2022.
Noteworthy railroad stations 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 Tamaqua. Derry Noyes served as art director. Down the Street Designs created the digital illustrations and typography.

You may have seen in the Philatelic catalogue from the USPS a Commemorative Panel, #483933, for this issue, but been unable to find it online. The USPS had hoped to have it for sale “on or around the first day of issue, but production problems prevented us from making it happen on time,” William J. Gicker, the head of USPS Stamp Services, told The Virtual Stamp Club in an email. “Furthermore, we were unable to remove the product from the Philatelic catalog prior to it going on press.”
He hopes it will go on sale sometime in May.
We also wondered about the price: Other commemorative panels for single-stamp commemoratives are $11.95 each. That was also the price for this five-stamp issue. A mistake? No, Gicker said.
“We try not to upcharge the panels with multiple stamp designs unless it is a full pane of multiple designs.”
