Jyllingevej station is a suburban rail railway station on the Frederikssund radial of the S-train network in Copenhagen, Denmark.[3] It has its name from the road of the same name.[1]
Jyllingevej Station was for many years one of the more primitively designed of the S-Bahn's stations. The station building was thus just a wooden shed; initially red, but in the late 1970s painted black as part of DSB's new overall design change. In 1995, the manually operated ticket sales closed, and in 2001 the original station building was demolished and replaced by a new and more up-to-date one of its kind, which can be seen below. On the same occasion, Jyllingevej Station - as the last of the S-Bahn's then 84 stations - was made handicap-friendly, as an elevator was installed deep inside the station building.
