'''Riverside Station''' is an old, deserted train station in the game ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', and the only known stop the [[Excess Express]] makes between [[Rogueport]] and [[Poshley Heights]]; the train typically stops at this station so it can be refueled before its commute continues. There was once a river that flowed beneath the bridge here (hence the name "Riverside Station"), but it dried up at an undisclosed time before Mario's arrival and the area has since become a pasture.

matches that of the [[Nintendo GameCube]]'s internal clock. This is changed in the remake where the train arrives at 5 PM. The station proper contains a hub area, an elevator, a machinery room, a deck, a garbage dump, and an old office and records room in the station's basement. Some train pictures can be seen on the walls in various places inside the station building. In the [[Nintendo Switch]] [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch)|remake]], the train depicted in the pictures more closely resembles the [[K64]] train from the original ''[[Paper Mario]]'', which suggests that an engine of its design operated on the railway before being replaced with the current Excess Express.

==Notes==

*The ordinary Goombas in the records room have several oddities that may indicate they were added very late in development: they are an early-game enemy and much weaker than other enemies encountered in the station, they do not thematically fit in with the area like the other enemies do, and despite being located in the records room, they use a battle background depicting the hallway upstairs. No enemies are found in the hallway, so the background may possibly have been [[List of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door pre-release and unused content#Dialogue|leftover from a cut battle]] with [[Doopliss]], [[Beldam]] and [[Marilyn]] in this chapter and repurposed for the Goombas.
