Towing a station through gate is not possible.
There was, in some game version, a hack. There is a cut-scene right after you have pressed the "build station" button. Supposedly, if you do switch sector after that, but before the scene is over, then the station might actually appear in the new sector. Not sure though; I never tried. It is more interesting to set up logistics.

There are no faces in OOS. Collision detection is computed only in the sector, where you are at the moment. Do you want to stay in that sector just to keep the "wham" possible?
