It's a Renaissance-style building with a European flavor, as it was heavily populated by Scottish settlers. <br><br>Today, the station is no longer used for regular train service, but as a station for tourist trains. It also has an art gallery and restaurant inside, giving people like us something to do even if we don't necessarily take the train. <br><br>I parked my car next to Dunedin station, and since it was a
