# parse-vbb-station-name

Station names in [VBB](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verkehrsverbund_Berlin-Brandenburg)/[BVG](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berliner_Verkehrsbetriebe) data are terribly inconsistent, cluttered with abbreviations, phrases to tell identically named places apart, and unhelpful suffixes like `, Bahnhof`. **`parse-vbb-station-name` tries to parse those names into a meaningful structure**.
