Stabekk Station

It is located in a primarily residential area and has four regular hourly services operated by Vy.

The Drammen Line past the site of Blommenholm Station opened as a narrow gauge railway on 7 October 1872.

At the time there was a limited population at Stabekk, but not more than that a unanimous municipal council stated that it was within walking distance of Lysaker Station.

[2] Private dwellings grew up in the Stabekk area starting in the 1860s and by the 1880s it had grown sufficiently substantial that it could support a train station.

From 27 February 1917 a passing loop was built at Høvik and standard gauge traffic was carried out on the northern track.

The line past the station received centralized traffic control and automatic train stop on 3 December 1992.

[1] The opening of the Bærum Tunnel, the second phase of the Asker Line, 26 August 2011, meant that express and regional trains bypassed Stabekk Station all together and run directly from Lysaker to Sandvika.

To carry out efficient construction work, the segment of track was closed and all trains diverted via the Bærum Tunnel from 7 April 2013 to 13 December 2014.

[10] The upgrades freed up track capacity allowing the number of trains to increase from two to four per direction per hour.

[10] The station building, situated on the north side of the tracks, was designed by Paul Due.

The brick structure features a mix of Romance and Gothic styles in the gable and windows in Art Nouveau.
