駅員(えきいん) | train station staff. ★★★☆☆ 駅 (train station) + 員 (clerk) = 駅員 (train station staff. )
各駅停車(かくえきていしゃ) | local train ★★☆☆☆ 各 (each) + 駅 (train station) + 停 (bring to a halt) + 車 (car) = 各駅停車 (local train) sure this is a scary and long word, but if you live here, you'll use it everyday： It means "local train" (literally, "stopping at each station train")
