Opened 1919

Notodden New Station (Norwegian: Notodden nye stasjon) served Notodden, Norway from 1919 to 2004. The station was designed by Gudmund Hoel, finished in 1917 and taken into use two years later when Bratsberg Line opened.[1]

The new line needed a higher starting position for the line southwards. The station is located 700 meters away from Notodden Old Station. In 2004 Notodden Station was created, located 800 meters further into town; this station is not located on the Tinnoset Line, and is not electrified.
