On 1 January 1880, the railway station was taken over by the Danish state along with the Zealand Railway Company. And on 1 October 1885, it became part of the new national railway company, the Danish State Railways.
The railway line was electrified in 1989 and the traffic was transferred to the S-train network. In 2002, the railway line became double tracked in its whole length.
Architecture
