Magic lantern slide circa 1900.Victorian/Edwardian social history. Dunedin Railway Station in Dunedin on New Zealand's South Island, designed by George Troup, is the city's fourth station. It earned its architect the nickname of "Gingerbread George". In an eclectic, revived Flemish renaissance style, (Renaissance Revival architecture), the station is constructed of dark basalt from Kokonga in the Strath-Taieri with lighter Oamaru stone facings, giving it the distinctive light and dark pattern common to many of the grander buildings of Dunedin and Christchurch. Pink granite[3] was used for a series of supporting pillars which line a colonnade at the front. The roof was tiled in terracotta shingles from Marseilles[4] surmounted by copper-domed cupolas.[5] The southern end is dominated by the 37-metre clocktower visible from much of central Dunedin.
