Skarpsno Station (Norwegian: Skarpsno stasjon) is a closed railway station located on Skøyen–Filipstad Line in Oslo, Norway.
Skarpsno is a residential area; also many foreign embassies are located here. The station is also used to reach the recreational area around Frognerkilen.
The station opened on 15 May 1882 as part of the Drammen Line, located 1.9 kilometres (1.2 mi) from Oslo Vestbanestasjon (Oslo V); it served as an intermediate station between Oslo V and Skøyen Station. It was closed at the same time as Oslo V on 28 May 1989, after the Oslo Tunnel had rerouted all trains to the new Oslo Central Station.[1]
