Beskrivelse
The first part of the Köping-Uttersberg-Riddarhyttan railway, the line past Oxbron, was opened in 1866. From 1882 and a few years onwards, there was also a siding for freight traffic, but it was gone when the railway guard's lodge was built in December 1904.
The cottage was built to provide the railway keeper with a home along the line for which he was responsible, and to enable his wife to operate the gates at the road crossing for a small fee.
A stop was built next to the cottage in 1932, and was used until passenger services ceased 20 years later. The last freight train passed through in 1966. A hiking, cycling and horseback riding trail now runs along the track that the railroad used to follow. The Romboleden pilgrimage trail passes Oxbron's signalman's hut on its way from Köping to Trondheim.
The well-preserved environment was extensively restored in 2019 and includes, in addition to the cabin, a larger outbuilding with, among other things, a woodshed and a secret house as well as a laundry room. The foundations of the railway bridge also remain and a new bridge has been built for cyclists, hikers and horse riders.
