Answer

The prepositional phrases are:<br /><br />* **On the platform** (preposition: on)<br />* **At the train station** (preposition: at)<br /><br />"People waited" is the predicate of the sentence, not a prepositional phrase. "Station" is a noun within a prepositional phrase, but not a phrase itself. You are also correct that "people" is the simple subject.<br />
