This is a standard naming convention for transit, transport, and train stations in Canada. It is related to naming conventions for stations in other countries, including Wikipedia:Naming conventions (Irish stations), Wikipedia:Naming conventions (stations in Poland), Wikipedia:Naming conventions (UK stations), and Wikipedia:Naming conventions (US stations).
This page was created following a February–March 2016 discussion about Canadian railway station article naming at Talk:Hinton station (Alberta). It is intended to bring Canadian stations and transit stops into a generally standard format that reflects common use in Canada and local communities. It eliminates variances in station titles among different systems, which previously had distinct unwritten conventions. It also eliminates some features of some systems' previous conventions, notably preemptive disambiguation and the use of "railway station" in titles.
