passenger station
Boarding point building
A passenger station is a facility where travelers board and exit trains, buses, or other public transit vehicles.
The term distinguishes these from freight stations or maintenance yards.
Most often the phrase appears in railroad contexts: The old passenger station has been converted into a restaurant.
In everyday speech, people usually just say station or specify: train station, bus station.
