Well "main station" is about 20 times more common than "main situation" in published English writing according to Google NGrams, so maybe Duolingo isn't being so useless after all :)

Entered "Nuestro estación principal" and got a negative result. Unless I'm mistaken, the gender of "nuestro/nuestra(s)" is defined by the speaker(s), right?

No, they agree with the gender of the noun modified.
This does contrast with nosotros/nosotras, the choice of which depends on the gender of the speaker (and others in the party).
