Gulskogen Station (Norwegian: Gulskogen stasjon) is located in the village of Gulskogen in Drammen, Norway on the Sørlandet Line, on a section previously regarded as the Randsfjorden Line. The station is served by local trains between Kongsberg via Oslo to Eidsvoll operated by Vy.[citation needed]

History

[edit]

The station was opened in 1868,[1] two years after the connection between Drammen and Vikersund was completed.[2] The first station building, designed by Henrik Bull, was finished in 1868. It was demolished at an unknown date. A second building was built in 1915 by Norwegian State Railways[1] when its architectural office was run by Gudmund Hoel.[2]
