History
The station opened on 26 August 1876 as the railway company Østjyske Jernbane (ØJJ) opened the railway line Randers-Ryomgaard-Grenaa from Randers to Grenaa. In 1877, ØJJ opened a branch line from Ryomgård to Aarhus, and just a few years later the trains starting running directly between Grenaa and Aarhus, with the Ryomgård-Randers section being reduced to a branch line used mostly for rail freight transport until it was closed altogether on 2 May 1971.
In 1901, Trustrup station became the northern terminus of the Ebeltoft Line to the town of Ebeltoft. From 1932, however, all trains on the Ebeltoft Line were continued on the tracks on the Grenaa Line from Trustrup to Grenaa. The Ebeltoft Line was closed in 1968.
