Peter Bangs Vej station is an S-train railway station serving the western part of the district of Frederiksberg in Copenhagen, Denmark.[1] The station is located on the Frederikssund radial of Copenhagen's S-train network.[3] The station, located where the railway line crosses the street Peter Bangs Vej, was designed by the Danish State Railways architect Knud Tanggaard Seest[4] and opened on 23 September 1941. The station was made famous in 2001, shortly after the 9/11 terrorist attacks in New York, for being the location from where an emergency 112 call was made and in which Danish Police failed to respond.
