Skatval Station (Norwegian: Skatval stasjon) is a railway station located in the village of Skatval in the municipality of Stjørdal in Nord-Trøndelag county, Norway on the Nordland Line railway line. The station is served hourly by the Trøndelag Commuter Rail service to Steinkjer and Trondheim. The service is operated by Norwegian State Railways. There is free parking at the station, but no ticket machine.[1]
[edit] History
The station was opened on 29 October 1902 on the Hell–Sunnan Line line between Hell Station and Levanger Station as the section to Levanger was finished. It was designed by Paul Due and was built with a surrounding park. The present station with two platforms is located a few hundred meters away from the old station, and the old station building was taken out of service.[2][3]
