Trunk Line
The Trunk Line past Nyland opened on 1854. The area gradually grew up as an industrial site, with a major match factory established in 1865. The Norwegian State Railways later establish a major depot at Nyland in 1943. To allow workers access, trains on the Trunk Line started calling at Nyland no later than 1942. An official stop was established on 17 June 1961, north of the older station.
