Station area edit
The station complex once included a kiosk, a restaurant, a ticketing hall and facilities for handling baggage and clearing freight. Freight services to the station were discontinued in 1989, and the last ticketing counter closed in 2001.
The building then stood unused and fell into disrepair. It was purchased by an investor in 2009,[5] and plans for the redevelopment of the site were discussed.[6]
After some delays, the original buildings were finally torn down and visually similar building was constructed on the site in 2012. The new building is used by various businesses and is no longer related to the railway.
