How it's used

Proper names of infrastructure like this are treated as specific locations in Cantonese. When discussing transit routes in the Pearl River Delta, speakers often use the suffix 站 to clarify that they are referring to the station facility rather than the surrounding district of 市橋. It functions exactly like any other noun representing a place, requiring the preposition 喺 when indicating location.
