[2] Since 2020 a local summer seasonal passenger service, called 'The Arctic Train' has been operated between Narvik and Bjørnfjell and back.

Tickets are sold to general public but cruise ship passengers are a target group.

[citation needed] It is the northern terminus for one of Europe's most celebrated night trains, the Norrlandståget which leaves Stockholm around six every afternoon, reaches Lappmarken by early the following morning, and then traverses the mountains that delimit the modern frontier between Sweden and Norway to reach the Ofotfjord, on the south shore of which lies the port of Narvik, where it arrives early afternoon.

[7] The station was officially opened and renamed as Narvik by King Oscar II on 14 July 1903.

[11] The station was badly damaged during World War II and was rebuilt afterwards, reopening in 1951.
