1) The train is going through a station (because he doesn’t know of which station you’re speaking of).
2) The train is going through the tunnel. (Because you both know which tunnel you’re speaking of).

1. The train is going through a station. Use the article “a” because it is not definite.
2. The train is going through the tunnel. “The” is used as the article because it is definite.
