HiNT Station, formally known as Røstad Station (Norwegian: Røstad stasjon), is a railway station located in the town of Levanger in the municipality of Levanger in Nord-Trøndelag county, Norway. It is located on the Nordland Line. The station gets its name from being located just beside the Nord-Trøndelag University College (Norwegian: Høgskolen i Nord-Trøndelag) campus at Røstad as well as the Norwegian Food Safety Authority.[1]

The unstaffed station is served hourly by the Trøndelag Commuter Rail service to Steinkjer and Trondheim. The service is operated by Norwegian State Railways.[2]

History

The station was opened on 7 January 2001 after a new large section of HiNT had moved to Røstad and the Trøndelag Commuter Rail was reorganized. [3]
