History

Lindholm station opened in 2002 as a part of the new Aalborg Commuter Rail service.[5] The station is located about 300 metres (980 ft) north of the old Nørresundby railway station which was closed in 1972. For a year 2012–2013, there was no train service, only bus service, since the Limfjord Railway Bridge across the Limfjord between Nørresundby and Aalborg was damaged and unusable for trains due to a ship collision. In 2020 the Aalborg Airport railway line opened which branches west north of Lindholm station to Aalborg Airport and links Aalborg with its airport.
