<br>
The building is still a building...map as a way with <br>
building=train_station as it is recognisable as a train station?<br>
<br>
It does appear to be now a museum... I'd map that as a separate node <br>
with the relevant details.<br>
<br>
<br>
It was a train station or halt.. Could be be one again? This should be <br>
an area that includes the building and local track.<br>
<br>
disused:railway=halt/station or disused:public_transport=station<br>
<br>
or abandoned:*=*<br>
<br>
If no longer in existence then consider mapping it in OHM.<br>
<br>
Nothing Oz specific about it?<br>
<br>
