+# `location(station)`
+
+`station` must be in one of these formats:
+
+```js
+// a station ID, in a format compatible to the profile you use
+'900000123456'
+
+// an FPTF `station` object
+{
+	type: 'station',
+	id: '900000123456',
+	name: 'foo station',
+	location: {
+		type: 'location',
+		latitude: 1.23,
+		longitude: 3.21
+	}
+}
+```
+
+## Response
+
+As an example, we're going to use the [VBB profile](../p/vbb):
+
+```js
+const createClient = require('hafas-client')
+const vbbProfile = require('hafas-client/p/vbb')
+
+const client = createClient(vbbProfile)
+
+client.location('900000042101') // U Spichernstr.
+.then(console.log)
+.catch(console.error)
+```
+
+The response may look like this:
+
+```js
+{
+	type: 'station',
