Train station is an Americanism. Next you'll be wanting me to drop
the u from colour, armour and similar words. No thanks.
Actually train station appears to be a tabloidism, railroad stations
and/or depots seem to be the preferred nomenclature across the pond.
Indeed. It's a British thing, falling into step (oops, I nearly said 'in
line') with Bus Station.
