Farum station is an S-train railway station serving the satellite town of Farum north of Copenhagen, Denmark.[1] It is located about 1 km east of the old village Farum, but is the center of the modern Farum, which has grown up around the station.

Farum station is the northern terminus of the Hareskov Line of Copenhagen's S-train network, a hybrid commuter rail and rapid transit system serving Greater Copenhagen. It is served regularly by trains on the B-line which have a journey time to central Copenhagen of around 30 minutes.[1] The station opened in 1906 with the opening of the Slangerup Line, and has been served by the S-train network since 1977.[2]
