Morphology

stational = station (transparent) = station + al

This is a regular and highly learnable suffixation from 'station' with the meaning 'relating to a station'.

Etymology

Stational comes from station and the root stat meaning 'to stand', so it is used for things that belong to a station, like controls or staff. That's why stational can mean 'relating to a station' in technical or work contexts.
