Surface waves arrive last at a seismograph station. These waves move along the Earth's surface and are the slowest of the seismic waves, but they can cause the most damage during an earthquake.
The seismograph station closest to the earthquake epicenter would have recorded P-waves first, followed by stations farther away. Since P-waves are the fastest seismic waves, they are the first to arrive at a seismograph station after an earthquake.
These are known as the seismic waves or the s waves. They will reach the earthquake location second after the first shock.
The last seismic waves to arrive during an earthquake are the surface waves, which travel along the Earth's surface and are responsible for the majority of the damage caused by the shaking. These waves move more slowly than the initial primary and secondary waves that travel through the Earth's interior.
Surface waves, specifically Love waves and Rayleigh waves, travel more slowly than other types of seismic waves such as P-waves and S-waves. They are the last to be recorded on a seismogram and are responsible for the majority of the shaking and damage during an earthquake due to their longer wavelengths.

A surface wave is the last seismic wave to arrive after an earthquake.
a surface wave is a earthquake it comes last. It goes Primary waves, Secondary waves, and Surface waves.

Primary waves (P waves) arrive at a seismograph first. Then, Secondary waves arrive. Lastly, Surface waves occur and cause the most damage.
There are three types of seismic waves released by an earthquake. Primary waves (P waves) are longitudinal or compressional waves and travel through the Earth's interior. They are first to arrive at a seismic station (velocity 5-8 km/s). Secondary waves (S waves) are a transverse or shear wave and move at a lower speed than that of primary waves (velocity 3-5 km/s). They arrive second at the seismic station. Finally, there are surface waves which as the name suggests travel along the Earth's surface, there are two main types (the Love wave and Rayleigh wave) and these are the slowest types of seismic waves (velocity 2.5 - 4.5 km/s) and hence arrive last at the seismic station.
The duration of The Last Station is 1.87 hours.
