My wife, son and I enjoyed a lovely few days in the Danish capital Copenhagen. Our apartment was located a short walk from Copenhagen Central station that I was able to explore at my leisure. We made excellent use of the Copenhagen Card that permitted unlimited travel on all public transport with no restrictions not only within the city but a fair distance away from it. I found all stations to be open and felt prefectly comfortable wandering around taking photographs even though I saw no other enthusiasts.

1. Late afternoon visit to Copenhagen Central station-24.08.15 Having had our first day exploring the delightful city of Copenhagen I took a walk to explore the Central station. There were no entry restrictions and no suspicious second glances when taking pictures. I found a great deal of diesel hauled services despite the station being fully wired that was odd as I discovered later in the week that the wires were strung well out into the countryside.
