History

The original station opened in 1866 when the Northern Main Line (now part of the Ostkustbanan) was inaugurated between Stockholm and Uppsala. This was the first railway station in Sollentuna Municipality, later followed by Tureberg and Norrviken.

Several station buildings have existed at this location. The first was destroyed by fire in 1877. A second brick station building was constructed but was demolished in 1968 and replaced with a ticket hall on the platform.^[3]

A freight track to the nearby Jästbolaget yeast factory is still in operation.
