I always took other to face value that it was officially called Howrah Junction, although I can't see a single bit of evidence or photo to suggest this. All the photos have it as just Howrah. I note that page was originally created as Howrah station in 2005 - there's an edit from 20 August 2014 that moved it to Howrah Junction. It also strikes me as a terminus. Do you know anywhere to cross check the information? Eastern Railway website is currently down. - <a href="/wiki/User:Master_Of_Ninja" title="User:Master Of Ninja">Master Of Ninja</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Master_Of_Ninja" title="User talk:Master Of Ninja">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Howrah_railway_station#c-Master_Of_Ninja-2020-06-02T21:46:00.000Z-Hydman-2020-06-02T19:36:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">21:46, 2 June 2020 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Master_Of_Ninja-2020-06-02T21:46:00.000Z-Hydman-2020-06-02T19:36:00.000Z"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Master_Of_Ninja-2020-06-02T21:46:00.000Z-Hydman-2020-06-02T19:36:00.000Z"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Master_Of_Ninja-2020-06-02T22:01:00.000Z-Master_Of_Ninja-2020-06-02T21:46:00.000Z"></span>So looking into this further there's not a mention of Howrah Junction at all in the ER website. It is just Howrah Station, and there are no pictures on their website suggesting it is a junction. All the timetables just state Howrah. Googling does not help as I suspect a lot of travel website have taken the naming from Wikipedia. The station perhaps used to be a junction in the past but again there is no evidence I can find for this. The user who changed the name, was also involved in a dispute over doing the same at <a href="/wiki/Talk:Asansol_Junction_railway_station" title="Talk:Asansol Junction railway station">Talk:Asansol Junction railway station</a>, however in that case there are photos to suggest that it is actually names as a junction.

Lines converge but I think a true junction has what you say trains moving on from the station. Why Eastern Railways doesn't call it a junction but Indian Railways lists it as so is interesting. Don't have time to go and research it now. However I do remember lines going south from the train station years ago. So it could have been a junction at one point. The other plausible thought is that in older times there was a howrah junction and a howrah terminus as seperate stations, and they have just merged over time. This could be like how some of the London Underground has changed names over time. <a href="/wiki/User:Master_Of_Ninja" title="User:Master Of Ninja">Master Of Ninja</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Master_Of_Ninja" title="User talk:Master Of Ninja">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Howrah_railway_station#c-Master_Of_Ninja-2020-07-12T07:49:00.000Z-Hydman-2020-07-12T04:32:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">07:49, 12 July 2020 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Master_Of_Ninja-2020-07-12T07:49:00.000Z-Hydman-2020-07-12T04:32:00.000Z"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Master_Of_Ninja-2020-07-12T07:49:00.000Z-Hydman-2020-07-12T04:32:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Anupamdutta73-2021-10-26T04:56:00.000Z-Junction_or_Terminus"></span>As per Indian Railways rule, a station is a Junction, if 2 or more lines converge/diverge...

As you can see on this talk page, and the discussions above, the naming of the station is as described in the article and can be "Howrah Station", "Howrah", or "Howrah Junction". Irrespective of track layout, this is how different divisions of Indian Railways (IR) see it, so the decision was to keep naming as it is. From one perspective I can see why it is a terminus, but on another I can see why it could functionally also be a junction. If IR would clarify the naming it would potentially solve the issue, but it is what it is. - <a href="/wiki/User:Master_Of_Ninja" title="User:Master Of Ninja">Master Of Ninja</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Master_Of_Ninja" title="User talk:Master Of Ninja">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Howrah_railway_station#c-Master_Of_Ninja-2022-03-18T07:08:00.000Z-Additions_March_2022" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">07:08, 18 March 2022 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Master_Of_Ninja-2022-03-18T07:08:00.000Z-Additions_March_2022"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Master_Of_Ninja-2022-03-18T07:08:00.000Z-Additions_March_2022"></span></li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="Page_move_from_Howrah_railway_station_to_Howrah_Junction_railway_station" data-mw-thread-id="h-Page_move_from_Howrah_railway_station_to_Howrah_Junction_railway_station-2020-10-20T22:41:00.000Z"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Page_move_from_Howrah_railway_station_to_Howrah_Junction_railway_station-2020-10-20T22:41:00.000Z"></span>Page move from <a href="/wiki/Howrah_railway_station" title="Howrah railway station">Howrah railway station</a> to <a href="/wiki/Howrah_Junction_railway_station" class="mw-redirect" title="Howrah Junction railway station">Howrah Junction railway station</a><span data-mw-comment-end="h-Page_move_from_Howrah_railway_station_to_Howrah_Junction_railway_station-2020-10-20T22:41:00.000Z"></span></h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Talk:Howrah_railway_station&action=edit&section=12" title="Edit section: Page move from Howrah railway station to Howrah Junction railway station"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-bar"><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-metadata"></div><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-actions"></div></div></div> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Djm-leighpark-2020-10-20T22:41:00.000Z-Page_move_from_Howrah_railway_station_to_Howrah_Junction_railway_station"></span>Given discussions on this page the undiscussed <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:BOLD" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:BOLD">WP:BOLD</a> move of <a href="/wiki/Howrah_railway_station" title="Howrah railway station">Howrah railway station</a> to <span class="plainlinks"><a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Howrah_Junction_railway_station&redirect=no">Howrah Junction railway station</a></span> is controversial and requires discussion and concensus.
