The station serves both local and express trains northbound through Innherred and to Nordland, and southbound to Trondheim.

History

The station was opened on 29 October 1902 on the Hell–Sunnan Line as the section to Levanger was finished. There was at the time of construction a controversy as to whether the station should be in the western or eastern part of town.[2][3][4] Operation of the restaurant was run by Norsk Spisevognselskap between 1 October 1934 and 8 May 1945.[5]
