The station is served by commuter and regional trains operated by Vy Gjøvikbanen.

The station is located beside the Norwegian Museum of Science and Technology.

It was opened on the 25 of September, 1934 along with the rest of the Kjelsås Line.

In the 2010s, the Kjelsås Line was upgraded as part of the Fremtidens Byreise programme (this brings 87 new trams to Oslo).

The depot was designed by Carl Vorbeck and it could hold 4-5 carriages within it.
