All regional trains stop at Marnardal station if needed. This means that passengers wishing to travel from Marnardal must stand visible on the platform when the train comes, or pre-order the ticket via telephone or Internet. If the train driver can not see anybody on the platform, and nobody on board wants to leave, the train will simply pass the station at reduced speed, without stopping.

There is no ticket office, ATM or crew on the station, but there is a restroom and 15 free parking spaces for passenger´s cars. There is also a bicycle parking under a roof.

History

The station was opened in 1943 when Sørlandsbanen was extended from Kristiansand Station to Moi Station. Previously there were six stops between Breland and Marnadal: Sjåvatn, Fossestøl, Skogtun, Høye, Øyslebø og Heddeland, but these have all been closed.
