Usage
This template expands a name (first parameter) to link to the appropriate station article, without displaying "station".
The optional second parameter (any character) will capitalize the word "Station".
The optional third parameter will add disambiguating qualifier in brackets after "Station"/"station".
The optional fourth parameter (or |alt=) will replace the displayed station name.
The template can be abbreviated as {{stn}} (for Station).
For example:
{{Station|City Hall}} expands to [[City Hall station|City Hall]] and thus City Hall.
{{Station|Union|x}} and {{STN|Union}} both expand to [[Union Station|Union]].
{{stn|Forest Hill||San Francisco}} expands to [[Forest Hill station (San Francisco)|Forest Hill]].
{{stn|Forest Hill|x|San Francisco}} and {{STN|Forest Hill|San Francisco}} both expand to [[Forest Hill Station (San Francisco)|Forest Hill]]. Note that there are only two parameters for the {{STN}} abbreviation.
