But apply the same logic to bus station? Or radio station?

And what about what happened in 1978 when all the BBC radio stations moved (and Radio 4, 200kHz to 198kHz in 1988), did they cease to become stations during the transition?

Good point. "Traces of PCB underneath a leaking distribution transformer must be contained and decontaminated."

Totally correct, totally relevant to the thread title - and totally NOT what the OP meant!
