I have seen many small stations with name ending with P.H. or in hindi प. ह.
Can anybody tell what does that P.H. stands for??? Example station with code: WRC . Does it means Passenger Halt ? or anything else ?

A halt, in railway parlance in the British Commonwealth, is a small railway station, usually unstaffed and with few or no facilities. In some cases, trains stop only on request, when passengers on the platform indicate that they wish to board, or passengers on the train inform the crew that they wish to alight.
A most basic station might only have platforms, though it might still be distinguished from a halt, a stopping or halting place that may not even have platforms.
