Location

Bräcke railway station (Swedish: Bräcke järnvägsstation) is a railway station located at Bräcke in Jämtland County, Sweden.[3]

It is located along the Central Line. It is also located at the southern end of the Main Line Through Upper Norrland, a line which has only freight trains since 2012.

The first railway station was built and opened when the original line Stockholm-Trondheim reached Bräcke in 1878.[2] A new station building (still remaining) was built in 1910.[5]

There are two tracks with a platform between. The platform is reached by a level crossing over one of the tracks.[6]
