Why did you waste points asking when all you have to do is go to yahoo.com and search for first railway station and do another search for first train and that should give you all the info you need.

The Liverpool Street Station in Manchester. The Station was built in 1830 and is the oldest railway station in the world

The very first stations as we now know them were on the Stockton & Darlington Railway in England. Initially, they used existing shops or inns. One of the first of these was at the inn called 'The Fighting Cocks' in the village of Middleton-St-George. It is still standing, althought the line has long since gone.

I forget where, (England?) but there was the earliest station at a world's fair type of event where they demonstarted the steam technology and offered rides on an engine on a circular track. The station of this "ride" was the first.
