The literal translation of railway station is estación de ferrocarril but if you mean railway as in another way of saying train station i think estación de tren works just as well

I think that estación de tren (train station) would be the best to use.

All of the above are correct...Estación de trenes, estación de tren, central de ferrocarril, estación de ferrocarriles, estación de ferrocarril!!!

Thanks everyone for all these helpful answers. It was Estacion de ferrocarriles I was after having half remembered it from a map of Havana. I'm here this week coming to terms with how poor my spanish is when the pedal really hits the metal! The city itself strikes me as a place that needs a good shaking to bring it into this century. So much talent, so little progress ...
