Why Is a Station Wagon Called a Station Wagon?

The next time you’re in a car dealership, just say the words “station wagon” and you’re likely to be corrected instantly. Almost no manufacturer wants to use the “w” word to describe their crossovers, SUVs, MPVs, or even Family Trucksters. But the station wagon has a long and proud history that many manufacturers should be proud of. They were called station wagons because they were initially designed to ferry the rich and famous to and from a train station.
