Story

Der Bahnhof Wellington befindet sich in der neuseeländischen Hauptstadt Wellington. Der Kopfbahnhof ist der südliche Endpunkt der Eisenbahnstrecke North Island Main Trunk Railway, die Wellington mit Auckland verbindet. Hauptsächlich haben hier Linien des Vorortzug-Netzes ihren Ursprung und erschließen die Region Wellington. Des Weiteren wird der Bahnhof von den Fernzügen Northern Explorer und Capital Connection sowie den Fernreisebussen des Unternehmens Intercity frequentiert. Die Stadtbusse des Unternehmens Go Wellington halten am benachbarten Busbahnhof.Im Bahnhofsgebäude ist im Ostflügel das Eisenbahn-Infrastruktur-Unternehmen Ontrack untergebracht. Teile der Victoria University of Wellington sind im Westflügel zu finden.Nördlich des Personenbahnhofes schließt sich ein Güterbahnhof an.Geschichte1933, mitten in der von 1930 bis 1936 währenden Phase der wirtschaftlichen Depression in Neuseeland, wurde als eines der wenigen Bahnbauprojekte der Neubau einer zentralen Station und Verwaltungssitz der Eisenbahn in Wellington beschlossen. Der Bahnhof wurde von 1934 bis 1937 erbaut und löste nach der Eröffnung die beiden Bahnhöfe Lambton und Thorndon ab. Seinerzeit war der Bahnhof das größte Gebäude des Landes und wurde auch als eines der ersten erdbebensicher errichtet. Entworfen wurde der Bahnhof vom Architekten William Gray Young in georgianischer Architektur. Den Bau übernahm die Fletcher Construction Company. Die Gesamtkosten für den Bau beliefen sich auf 350.000 Pfund.

It is so spacious and I love this one in particular as it has the university campus above on upper floors and New World supermarket at the ground floor. From the upper floor, you can see people going in the Westpac stadium known now as Sky stadium You even hear the cheering from that stadium too.
WellingtonRailway Station Have you ever noticed how beautiful this building is? It was a big part of my teenage life in the 70's. Also the pie cart outside. As a child used to go to the cafe for meat Pies for lunch
I love it. It has got a new world in it and the trains go inside!
Train and bus station inside a beautiful work of architecture that it could become a bit of an attraction by itself. Has rail and bus services to parts of Wellington and much of the North Island. The building is old but looks very well maintained. Also has a coffee shop and a decent size New World inside.
Always a fan of heritage-like buildings. The Wellington Railway Station still holds onto its historical structure and has been well looked after by the City. It is a gem and worth experiencing using public transport.
Perfect facility but surprisingly no ramp for wheelchairs on the main entrance
