The place where trains arrive and depart.
زمینه فرهنگی
Railway stations are famous for 'Station Coffee' and 'Parippu Vada'. It's a ritual for many travelers to buy these during a short halt. In Sri Lanka, the term 'புகையிரத நிலையம்' is more common on official signs, reflecting a slightly different linguistic evolution. The 'Railway Station' is a trope for romantic partings or reunions in Kollywood (Tamil cinema). It is common for entire families to come to the 'ரயில் நிலையம்' to see off a single relative going on a long journey.
The 'I' Rule

While 'Perundu Nilaiyam' is correct, just saying 'Bus Nilaiyam' is a common but incorrect mix.
