Storlien Station (Swedish: Storlien station, Norwegian: Storlien stasjon) is a railway station located at Storlien in Åre Municipality, Sweden. Located 3.5 kilometres (2.2 mi) east of the Norway–Sweden border, it serves as changeover station between the Norwegian Meråker Line and the Swedish Central Line (the actual ownership border and name change between the lines is at the national border). The altitude is 592 metres (1,942 ft), the highest located station in Sweden. The station is 105.97 kilometres (65.85 mi) from Trondheim, 358 kilometres (222 mi) from Sundsvall and 748.1 kilometres (464.8 mi) from Stockholm. The station and entire line Östersund–Trondheim was inaugurated by the king Oscar II in Storlien 1882. The village of Storlien is primarily a ski resort and border shopping place.
As of 2019,[update] there are no through passenger services. SJ Norge operates regional trains from Trondheim Central Station, and Norrtåg (Vy Tåg) operates regional trains from Sundsvall Central Station via Östersund Central Station, both twice a day, connecting at Storlien. Although the Swedish railway is electrified up to the border, the Norwegian line is not, so all service to Norway must be by diesel train. There is a decision from 2013 to electrify the Norwegian railway, and contracts were awarded in 2021, with electrical services scheduled to operate from 2023/2024.[1]
