In Chapter 15, Bud and Miss Thomas arrive at Herman Calloway's home after dinner. Bud is still embarrassed about crying at dinner and realizes that he is going to have to talk to her about his past eventually. Miss Thomas tells Bud that they have just arrived at Grand Calloway Station. After Bud grabs his suitcase from the back seat, he asks Miss Thomas why Herman's house has a name. Miss Thomas tells Bud that a long time ago there were so many people coming and going through the house at different hours of the day and night, that Herman said it reminded him of Grand Central Station in New York City. She said that the name kind of stuck and that is why they call Herman's home Grand Calloway Station.
