History

The station was opened on 1 November 1904 on the Hell–Sunnan Line as the section to Verdal was finished. It was built based upon designs by Paul Armin Due. It was named Værdalen until 1 June 1919 when it was changed to its present name.[1]

The station is located along the Nordland Line and it serves the entire municipality of Verdal except the Vinne area which is served by Bergsgrav Station. The station is served by the Trøndelag Commuter Rail service between Steinkjer and Trondheim and also by regional trains to Bodø and Trondheim.[2]
