A train station, railway station, railroad station, or depot (see below) is a railway facility where trains regularly stop to load or unload passengers or freight.
It generally consists of at least one track-side platform and a station building (depot) providing such ancillary services as ticket sales and waiting rooms. If a station is on a single-track line, it often has a passing loop to facilitate traffic movements. The smallest stations are most often referred to as "stops" or, in some parts of the world, as "halts" (flag stops).
Stations may be at ground level, underground, or elevated. Connections may be available to intersecting rail lines or other transport modes such as buses, trams or other rapid transit systems.
Terminology
In the United States, the most common term in contemporary usage is train station. Railway station and railroad station are less frequent; also, American usage makes a distinction between the terms railroad and railway.
In Britain and other Commonwealth countries, traditional usage favours railway station or simply station, even though train station, which is often perceived as an Americanism, is now about as common as railway station in writing; railroad station is not used, railroad being obsolete there. In British usage, the word station is commonly understood to mean a railway station unless otherwise qualified.

Kalampaka Railroad station tribute, part 2 (HD)
Images of the recent past...train 884 from Athens with friendly driver arriving, then ADtranz diesel loco reverses and couples to the train consist of the train that will later depart to Athens again as train 885. Next, we take a look at the drivers' cab of the locomotive. Later an AEG DMU with 4 cars arrives from Larissa (nice horn again) and we take a look inside the cab as well. In the meantime passengers to Athens wait for train 885 to enter the station...this occurs later...at 10;16 notice the sound of the air brakes caused by an emergency braking (normally it shouldn't be applied). Finally, as train 885 departs a MAN DMU to Palaiofarsalos enters the station from the siding chasing the departing train.

We've stopped at a supply dump to restock on ammunition and supplies, before moving on to support our comrades at the railyard. The station house at Railroad Station No. 1 is currently under German control. Lt. Volsky says it changed hands 12 times in the past 6 hours. The safest way to reach the trainyard is the pipeline - as long as the Germans don't know we're in there, of course.
