Map and coordinates
The location map uses the value of the |coordinates= parameter. It was previously necessary to use individual parameters for latitude and longitude, but the format was obsoleted by an RfC in August 2016 (see Help:Coordinates in infoboxes).
The ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 or ISO 3166-2 region code can often be determined automatically, based on the country= and borough= parameters. This can be overridden by specifying region:XX or region:XX-ABC in the unnamed parameter after the coordinate values.
An external style template may be used to allow the modification of display parameters. This can be the same template that is used in conjunction with Template:S-line, but may be a different template. The |style= parameter is used to specify the name of the template where the styling is defined; the template's name must end with the word "style", but this word must be omitted from the |style= parameter. For example, |style=STM will use the {{STM style}} template.
Parameter
Description
name_format
Formatting the station name in Infobox station
thcolor
Font color for table headings in Infobox station
thbgcolor
Background color for table headings in Infobox station
For systems which have an Adjacent stations module defined the |style2= parameter may be used to specify a sub-style within that system. For example, |style2=Amtrak old used with |style=Amtrak will return the pre-Acela Amtrak heritage colors from Module:Adjacent stations/Amtrak.
Embedding other infoboxes
The embedded= parameter can be used to embed another infobox with such capability like {{designation list}} and {{infobox NRHP}}.
Old parameters

Microformat
The HTML markup produced by this template includes an hCard microformat, which makes the place-name and location parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue articles across Wikipedia, or via a browser tool operated by a person, to (for example) add the subject to an address book. Within the hCard is a Geo microformat, which additionally makes the coordinates (latitude & longitude) parsable, so that they can be, say, looked up on a map, or downloaded to a GPS unit. For more information about the use of microformats on Wikipedia, please see the microformat project.
Sub-templates
If the place or venue has an "established", "founded", "opened" or similar date, use {{start date}} unless the date is before 1583 CE.
