Morjärv Station (Morjärv järnvägsstation in Swedish, Morajärven rautatieasema in Finnish) is a railway station located on the Boden to Haparanda railway line in the village of Morjärv in northern Sweden. The railway was built in 1902,[1] and Morjärv became a railway junction in 1961 when the Morjärv to Karlsborgsbruk secondary line was completed. Today (written 2006) the Morjärv station is the only manned station between Boden and Haparanda. There is no passenger traffic, not since year 2000.
