Novi Sad looks very different from when I was last there in 2006! Has it fully reopened after the tragic canopy collapse?

Here's the next one - taken in January this year.

Shenzen North?
Yes - you got it! What helped you recognise it?

It's the first Chinese station I've been where I noticed dedicated signage for "transfers" (between trains). The layout makes it possible to walk along the bridge between platforms and (potentially) find your onward train without going back out and in again - I'm not sure if this is what the "transfers" signs are encouraging as I'd always thought that China Railways like you to pass through the mandatory ticket check before getting on to the platform.

Well initially I thought it was Shanghai Hongqiao but when I checked some pictures the Roof Truss/Supports looked different. I thought it may be one of the Major Stations and had a look at a couple and saw the distinctive Roof Trusses/Supports matched Shenzen North. Many Chinese Stations look similar because they have all been upgraded or rebuilt in the last 20 years. Makes the job a lot harder when someone picks a Chinese Station.

I'll post another today or early tomorrow.
