The subject line says it all, really. Can anyone identify the station I arrived at last Saturday and departed from on Monday 8 October 2018?

Looks rather neat and tidy, with neither litter nor yellow lines - may I suggest somewhere foreign?

I too wondered if it was the new Kenilworth Station but I had a quick look at it in summer and the building in the photo looks too big. I also wondered if it was the new Cranbrook station in/near Exeter but again I don't recall seeing the design plans as looking that big.

 Certainly not Scandinavian.  Not Norwegian, obviously, although the station name begins with N. And it isn't on the GWR (Great Western Railway) network.

Looking at what looks like the phone kiosk I can see it's not in Germany as it's not yellow. It does look northern European, possibly one of the low countries.
