train stations
Where locomotives stop
Train stations are places where passenger trains stop to let people board and disembark.
The term is standard in American English, while British English typically prefers railway station.
A station includes platforms, ticket facilities, and waiting areas.
Grand urban stations often feature notable architecture, while rural stations may be simple platforms with a shelter.
