Terrorism is still incredibly rare. Perhaps a train station is a bit more likely as a target, but it's extremely unlikely that any given train station will be attacked. And, an "armed response" team is pretty similar to a SWAT team. They're probably better used sitting in some central place from which they can quickly mobilize and get anywhere rather than walking around among the public at an airport or train station.
