Today, a coroner’s court in Lewes heard he was stabbed in the heart.
Pathologist Dr Robert Chapman performed a postmortem examination on the boy.
Initial results gave the cause of death as a haemorrhage caused by a stab wound to the heart.
A 16-year-old boy, who cannot be named for legal reasons, has been charged with murder.
He is due to appear at Lewes Crown Court next month.
The victim was at the busy station at around 5pm when he was fatally struck.
Emergency services tried desperately to revive the victim, but he was sadly pronounced dead at the scene.
Cops said two boys, aged 16 and 14, were arrested.
The younger of the two was also detained on suspicion of conspiracy to possess a firearm.
Officers previously urged anyone with information to come forward.
Detective Chief Inspector Paul Stanley at the time said : “This is a shocking incident which has resulted in the tragic loss of a young man this evening.
“The investigation remains in the early stages and the station will remain closed while we continue our enquiries in the area.
“I would urge anyone who may have witnessed what happened, or the lead up to it, to get in touch.
“As you may have vital information which could help our investigation.
“Please contact BTP by texting 61016 or calling 0800 40 50 40 quoting reference 428 of 10 September.”
It comes just days after a 15-year-old boy was charged with murdering another teen, also 15.
