Before posting drivel again try and get your brain engaged and sort
out your posting style, ie attibution and don't top post.


More Drivel:
I would call 'Station Oz' a ski station. As it is, a, well ... 'ski
station'
I would call St Anotn a village/town as it is a well... town?


The is Europe, it's rec.skiing.resorts.europe, we call a ski station
somewhere that has access to a ski area, like a train station lets you
ride the train.


Hi, I am puzzled too.

Please don't be offended, but in Scandinavia and all cross Europe we would
surely call a town like St. Anton a town. This apparently is different in
UK.
I am curious, how do one differentiate between a town and a mere station?


Why on earth would you want to? They are not mutually exclusive terms.

To me a ski station would be any location with ski lifts which can be
accessed without requiring other lifts. If that happens to be a town,
then it is also a town.

A town is not a definition which has anything to do with skiing.
