Because a station is a place you pull up to an leave going the same direction, and a port is a place you enter and then go back out the same way.
Airplanes come down to a port, then go back up.
Boats come into a port, then back out to sea.
Buses come into a station, then go along their way. Same as trains.
I just want to say the guy who voices the commercials for Draft Kings Sportsbook has the worst voice I have ever heard.
