pulling in
Entering a station
Pulling in describes movement toward a destination or enclosed space, especially vehicles arriving or parking.
A train pulls in to the station; you pull in to a gas station or driveway.
The phrase extends to gathering or attracting: a show that pulls in big crowds, a job that pulls in good money.
Police pull someone in when they bring them in for questioning.
If you pull in your spending, you reduce or restrain it.
