Sandvika Station

Sandvika Station (Norwegian: Sandvika stasjon) is a railway station located in downtown Sandvika in Bærum, Akershus, Norway. The station serves as a local public transport hub and is located on the Asker Line and the Drammen Line. The station was opened with the Drammen Line in 1872. In 2005 the Asker Line opened allowing though trains to bypass local trains and head directly to the next mayor station, Asker. An expansion of the Asker Line to Lysaker is under construction.

The station is served by commuter trains, regional trains, and the Airport Express Train airport express trains to Oslo Airport, Gardermoen. The station also serves as a bus station for Sandvika.

Famous quotes containing the word station:

    “How soon country people forget. When they fall in love with a city it is forever, and it is like forever. As though there never was a time when they didn’t love it. The minute they arrive at the train station or get off the ferry and glimpse the wide streets and the wasteful lamps lighting them, they know they are born for it. There, in a city, they are not so much new as themselves: their stronger, riskier selves.”
    —Toni Morrison (b. 1931)
