I am trying to translate "station" as metro, bus, or train stop. For gas stations, telecom stations, etc, there should be a new sentence.

This should be 'convenient /for/ the station'.

> Actually, in American English, "convenient to" is OK.

Ick.

> Paul, why not add the UK variant.

OK, consider it done.
