Please reread Chris Angelico's message.  Iterating over the lists
themselves, instead of making a range, is shorter, easier to read, and
usually quicker.

Untested:

for rowshort, query_origin_stop in zip(stn_list_short, stn_list_long):
    row_durations.append(rowshort)
    for query_destination_stop in stn_list_long:
        #4 . Determine ...
