Tolne station is a Danish railway station, located in the village Tolne in Tolne hills west of Frederikshavn.

The station is located on the Vendsyssel Line from Aalborg to Frederikshavn, between Sindal station and Kvissel station. The train services are operated by DSB which runs frequent InterCity services to Copenhagen and Frederikshavn and regional train services to Aalborg and Frederikshavn.

History

The station opened in 1873 as a halt on the new Nørresundby-Frederikshavn railway line as the branch from Nørresundby to Frederikshavn opened on 16 August 1871. It was promoted to a station in 1879 when the station building designed by N.P.C. Holsøe was completed.

On 7 January 1879, at the opening of the Limfjord Railway Bridge, the Vendsyssel line was connected with Aalborg station, the Randers-Aalborg railway line and the rest of the Danish rail network.

The station was closed in 1972 but continued as a halt. The station building has been torn down.
