History
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.[6] And on 1 October 1885, it became part of the new national railway company, the Danish State Railways.[7]
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.[2]
Services
Måløv station is served regularly by trains on the C-line of Copenhagen's S-train network which run between Frederikssund and Klampenborg via central Copenhagen.[4]
