Over the past year, I have increasingly noticed that many, perhaps even the majority of the public call stations ‘train stations’ rather than ‘railway stations’. ‘Railway station’ to me always seemed to the more typical way to describe National Rail stations in British English. Is this change in terminology for stations something else others have noticed? Does it vary by region? I live in London, so perhaps the phase ‘train station’ is more common in London than elsewhere in the country.
