Auckland, New Zealand
N/A
To reach the other line (if heading into the city) you have to walk through a tunnel that sits outside of the platform which takes roughly 5 to 7 minutes. Can't imagine anyone not thinking it a safety issue at night time. No visible toilet amenities and no convenient store for drinks. No vending machines. The train booth operators look confined/trapped. The signage from the main street to the train station is extremely lacking, almost like they want people not to use it ! Save for the large gravel parking spot which a lot of city workers will find handy during the week this train station is poorly designed and extremely inconvenient.

Useful location to access Parnell shops and the Domain and Museum (which is well worth a visit). But the station is in a valley so a climb out required. No amenities, but security staff on site. An undertrack tunnel gets you from one side to the next. The old wood station is on the east side.
Parnell train station was where I road a train for the first time in my life when I visited New Zealand in June 2018. It was hard to find, but I was in a foreign country after all. I got on not really sure where I was going and ended up getting off at the Newmarket station where there were a bunch of shops. Love this train station and the fun memories that go with it!
Very clean station staff friendly and helpful. Signs displayed accurately. Trains most of the time are on time . Very clean station staff friendly and helpful. Signs displayed accurately. Trains most of the time are on time .
beautiful train station attached to the biggest park in Auckland.
Had to walk across the tracks to get to Parnell shops. Derelict AF, hardly what you would expect for a central city station, in a premier suburb. Shame on AT.
Closeby parking but works still ongoing to get the approach to the station up to scratch. Currently not accessible for people with strollers or wheelchairs.
Almost a textbook example of where and how not to build a station. Terrible amenity, access between platforms is bizarrely nowhere near the actual platforms, hard to find (both bad location and bad wayfinding). Adds two minutes to how long it takes every train to get through, lengthening everyone's journey (although that could be fixed by just closing the damn doors and getting the train moving faster - we seem to be the slowest in the world at that)
