Tinnoset Station (Norwegian: Tinnoset stasjon) is a disused railway station on the Tinnoset Line located at Tinnoset in Notodden, Norway. At the station's docks wagons were transferred from trains to the Tinnsjø railway ferry.
The station building is built in a nationally romantic style with logs, designed by architect Thorvald Astrup. It was finished in 1908 but did not open until August 9, 1909. It remained staffed until 1988. On January 1, 1991, the station closed after all passenger traffic was ended on the Tinnoset Line, as was freight traffic the following summer.[1][2]
