I have travelled to and from that station. Also stayed in a hotel almost next door to it, overlooking the tracks in the cutting on the approach. Didn't take a camera, so no pics. That station building is a stunning piece of architecture, inside and out.

The Danes are normally very calm, peaceful, friendly people. But step out into their cycle lane by mistake, and you see "cycle rage" that makes road rage seem benign. They turn into raving lunatics.

Back in the day (the 70's), I rode my bicycle all over Belgium. It was a great way to get around; the train service was good too.
