The series Di 4 of the Norges Statsbaner (NSB) are diesel-electric locomotives for the transport of passenger trains on non-electrified routes. They are mainly used on the Nordlandbahn because the remaining non-electrified routes are served by railcars.

The five Di 4s were built by Henschel in 1980 and put into service a year later with the track numbers 4651 to 4655. It was planned to replace them with locomotives of the Di 6 series from the mid-1990s , but these proved to be a failure. Apart from shunting locomotives, the Di 4 are the only NSB diesel locomotives today.

Despite external differences corresponding ME (II) series of DSB technically largely of Di fourth
