A train station, railway station or simply a station is a railway facility where trains regularly stop for passengers.

Generally, stations consist of one or more platforms providing easy access to board and alight arriving train services. Most urban stations have a variety of features such as ticket sales staff (or machines), travel card swipe devices, waiting rooms, toilets, CCTV, etc. Stations may be staffed full or part time and would usually have revenue protection officers or security officers randomly present.

Typically located close to intersections with major roads, stations may be at, below or elevated relative to surrounding ground level.

Within the centre of major cities, they are often in underground tunnels or upon viaducts (elevated tracks).

Access to other transport modes such as intersection rail lines (junction stations), buses, trams or light rail may be provided.

Some suburban stations may have all-day car parking and "kiss and go" drop-off points for car passengers.

A through station is a station along the line. A terminus is the station at the end of the line from which the train makes a return trip.

Training Packages are sets of nationally endorsed standards and qualifications for recognising and assessing people's skills.

Training Packages describe the skills and knowledge needed to perform effectively in the workplace. They do not prescribe how an individual should be trained. Teachers and trainers develop learning strategies (the "how") depending on learners' needs, abilities and circumstances.

Training Packages are developed by industry through national industry advisory bodies, recognised bodies or by enterprises to meet the identified training needs of specific industries or industry sectors. Reviews ensure Training Packages remain current to meet industry needs and allow issues that arise during their implementation to be addressed.

To gain national endorsement, developers must provide evidence of extensive consultation and support within the industry area or enterprise. Training Packages complete a quality assurance process and then are endorsed by the National Quality Council (NQC) and placed on the National Training Information Service (NTIS).
