The station is located on the Vendsyssel Line between Aalborg and Frederikshavn, between Tolne station and Frederikshavn station. The train services are operated by the railway company Nordjyske Jernbaner which runs frequent regional train services to Aalborg and Frederikshavn.
History
The station opened in 1871 as a halt on the new Nørresundby-Frederikshavn railway line as the branch from Nørresundby to Frederikshavn opened on 16 August 1871. It was promoted to a station in 1877.
On 7 January 1879, at the opening of the Limfjord Railway Bridge, the Vendsyssel line was connected with Aalborg station, the Randers-Aalborg railway line and the rest of the Danish rail network.
The station was closed in 1982 but continued as a railway halt.
Architecture
The station building from 1877 was designed by the Danish architect N.P.C. Holsøe.
