Explanation:
when you talk about something for the first time, you use A/An..as T in tourist and P in policeman are not vowels, you use *a* as there may be other tourists and other policemans
but the station is only one..so you use *the*
and now you're talking about the policeman and tourist for the second time so you use *the* policeman and *the* tourist.
