History

The inaugural S-train at Måløv station on 27 May 1989.

Måløv station was built by Det Sjællandske Jernbaneselskab (the Railway Company of Zealand, now Danish State Railways) and opened 17 June 1879 between Frederikssund and Frederiksberg. On 1 January 1880, the railway station was taken over by the Danish state along with the Zealand Railway Company.[4] And on 1 October 1885, it became part of the new national railway company, the Danish State Railways.[5]

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

The station building is also from 1879 when 4 stations were built according to the same plan: Herlev station, Måløv station, Veksø station and Ølstykke station. Like the other station buildings of the Frederikssund Line they were built to a design by the Danish architect Simon Peter Christian Bendtsen.[6]
