If Wellington's statue in London is a meeting place for Londoners, then Flinders Street train station is Melbourne's equivalent. Melbournians meet each other under the clocks to the music of buskers and the constant roar of traffic. Built in 1899 on the site of the city's first fish market, the Victorian station has been well preserved and by night the clocks on the front of the station are bathed in a quite spectacular golden glow. The railway shops sell food to go, magazines and souvenirs. A police station provides security for passengers.
