(A) to smoke, drink, eat, and play loud music either aboard the train or station platforms
Not parallel. We need the preposition "on" before "station"
(B) to smoke, drink, eat, and to play loud music either aboard the train or station platforms
Not parallel. Either we can add "to" before each item in the list or we add "to" before first item in the list in the case of FANBOYS conjunctions.

(D) to smoke, to drink, to eat, and play loud music either aboard the train or on station platforms

Bunuel
Official Explanation:
(A) Since aboard comes after either, a preposition needs to come after or as well—on needs to be used before station platforms. Also, the connector among the four things— smoke, drink, eat, play loud music—needs to be or because the use of and only implies that all four of these cannot be done together.
(B) The usage of to in to play loud music breaks the parallel structure. Since aboard comes after either, a preposition needs to come after or as well—on needs to be used before station platforms.
(C) The correct answer.
(D) To maintain parallelism, there should be a to before play loud music.
(E) Since aboard comes after either, a preposition needs to come after or as well—on needs to be used before station platforms.
