A lot of European long-distance train stations are named like "Bigcity Neighborhoodname" or "Bigcity Suburbname". If you want to go downtown you really have to get used to booking (and watching for!) Bigcity Central/Centraal/Centrale/Sentral/Hbf/HB/H, or you can go very awry all over Europe...
In Frankfurt, Germany, you also have to be additionally careful if a station is signed as Frankfurt(Main), because there (Main) indicates the major city on the River Main, as distinct from the other Frankfurt on the River Oder (along the border with Poland). For example,

is definitely not the main station of Frankfurt(Main). :-)
