train depot
Locomotive waiting area
A train depot is a station where trains stop to load and unload passengers or freight.
The term is somewhat old-fashioned in American English, evoking small-town railroad stations: The old depot had been converted into a restaurant.
Depot emphasizes the building itself rather than the broader infrastructure of a modern train station.
