Great Eastern Square, Felixstowe
The station here was opened in 1898 and described at the time as built 'in a style which harmonises with its aristocratic surroundings'. There is nothing particularly aristocratic about the surroundings now, but the building is handsome and is grade II listed. It is no longer in railway use, however, and operates as a small shopping centre. In order to get to the trains passengers have to walk through it, out the other side and across a car park where trains use the far end of one of the original platforms.

Great Eastern Square, Felixstowe
If this looks uncannily like a railway station concourse, then the impression is correct - because that is what it once was. In a way it still is, because there is access to the trains through here, even though nowadays passengers have to walk out of the building again and across a car park. In its modern guise as a shopping centre it is certainly clean and tidy, but oddly deserted.
