tram station
A platform, structure, or place where passengers can board and alight from streetcars.
A tram station is a place where passengers can board or alight from streetcars. It can be a designated place on the street or sidewalk, or a platform or structure built especially for this purpose.
The boarding location can be part of the street or sidewalk. A purpose-built platform or station structure is possible, but neither is required.
The service is a streetcar or tram line. Platforms for regional or intercity passenger rail belong to train stations.
