Hmmm - that should have worked.

I'd suggest:

    <al-label forexpr="s_label">Stations :</al-label>

However, the above is slightly different to what you have - do you really
want the noescape - it's a safety measure, and should really be retained
if possible?

The documentation is included with Albatross, and it does describe all
this in excruciating detail (the biggest problem is finding the bit you
need). 

The latest version of the doco is also available on the Object Craft
