== History == When the [[standard gauge]]d [[Sørlandet Line]] was opened to Kristiansand in 1938, Grovane became the new terminal station for the Setesdal Line, with connection to the Sørlandet Line. The Setesdal Line was suspended from 1 September 1962, and the track was lifted between Byglandsfjord and Beihølen. The {{convert|6|km|abbr=on}} line between Beihølen and Grovane was, however, preserved by local enthusiasts. The [[Setesdal Line Hobby Club]] was already established in 1964. Today, the Setesdal Line is a railway museum with steam trains serving the {{convert|8|km|abbr=on}} line between Grovane and [[Røyknes]]. Four steam locomotives from 1894-1902 are preserved, along with a number of passenger and freight cars.
