station agent
Railroad ticket seller
A station agent is an employee who manages operations at a railroad or bus station—selling tickets, handling baggage, coordinating schedules, and assisting passengers.
The term evokes an earlier era of rail travel when small-town depots each had their own agent: The station agent telegraphed ahead about the delay.
