Moss Station (Norwegian: Moss stasjon) is a railway station located in downtown Moss in Østfold, Norway. The station is located on the Østfold Line and serves as terminal station for Line 550 of the Oslo Commuter Rail service to Oslo Central Station and onwards to Spikkestad as well as a stop of the regional services to Halden.

History[]

Moss Station was built based upon designs by architect, Peter Andreas Blix. The station was opened as part of the railway on 2 January 1879. In 1923, an agreement was made by which the restaurant was to be taken over by Norsk Spisevognselskap (NSS) in 1924. However, private operation continued until 1 October 1941, when operations were taken over by Spisevognselskapet.[2] [3]
