The result of the move request was: moved. Consensus to move to New York Penn Station, mainly per WP:NATURALDISAMBIGUATIONnatural disambiguation. No move of the disambiguation page is required. (closed by non-admin page mover) – robertsky (talk) 12:05, 1 August 2023 (UTC)

replies: text: @Estar8806 on the Baltimore question, I did a fairly thorough search last year during the move request: Talk:Baltimore Penn Station#Requested move 18 June 2022. I wonder if the "formal name" (which is not sourced) is a nod to the NRHP listing. NRHP names aren't a good guide for actual names of things, they tend to be descriptive.

replies: text: Mhm, my understanding is that, with the exception of Penn Station, no station uses Pennsylvania Station as their WP:COMMONNAME :3 F4U (they/it) 12:23, 19 July 2023 (UTC)

text: My personal and entirely unqualified experience living in NJ is that Pennsylvania Station is used in official and formal contexts, while Penn Station is used in more vernacular or news contexts. :3 F4U (they/it) 12:54, 19 July 2023 (UTC)

text: Comment. "Penn Station" is far more frequently used than "Pennsylvania Station" -- including in subway and train (both NJT and LIRR) announcements, and the name of the subway station at 34th St. It's also used more frequently by the press, including the relatively fusty old Grey Lady and the Wall Street Journal.  A quick unscientific survey of articles from those two suggests that they both consistently use "Pennsylvania" in the first mention in the body of an article, but use "Penn" in subsequent mentions as well as in headlines and image captions.  -- Avocado (talk) 13:51, 19 July 2023 (UTC)
