Description summary:
The description varies with Identified with a Tradition: and Train Defences

Identified with a Tradition:	Description
The School of Hard Knocks	She has drawn you a building that is much more fortress than station. What it might lack in glamour or elegance, it makes up for in safety, and any passengers that get so far are likely to be grateful for that commodity.
The Forms of the Tomb-Colonies	She has drawn you a subtle, brilliantly engineered building, one that maximises the sight-lines and the potential methods of self-defence, while presenting the fewest possible avenues for a breach.
The Adventuress' Correspondence Course	She has drawn you a building for survival (basements full of stores and ammunition) and exploration (including the capacity to send out sorties).
Your own amalgam	She has drawn you a building that is much more fortress than station. What it might lack in glamour or elegance, it makes up for in safety, and any passengers that get so far are likely to be grateful for that commodity.

Train Defences	Description
0	It will make a curious contrast to your defenceless trains. But, of course, the station has to stay out there in that dangerous territory, whereas a train may, after a fashion, flee.
1 - 2	The station will be much better defended than your trains themselves. But that is perhaps as it should be.
3 - 4	Your trains are already well-defended, after all. This merely extends the same policy to the station, where the landscape is too dangerous for anything else.
5 - 6	Your trains are instruments of battle, and your station a mighty fortification. It would be foolish to harden one but leave the other as a target.
