NSB Type 93 is a diesel-powered articulated railcar with tilting technology from Norges Statsbaner for traffic on Nordlandsbanen , Raumabanen and Rørosbanen . The trains were supplied by Strømmens Værksted and are of the Bombardier Talent type . A total of 15 of these two-part units were built.
The trains were built in 2001 and replaced trains with locomotives and wagons. Using the trains as a day train between Trondheim and Bodø , the longest Norwegian railway line, had the advantage that the speed could be increased. Nevertheless, the use was controversial because the comfort of the railcar was lower than in the old trains. On February 14, 2007, NSB's board of directors decided to return to the old locomotive-driven train units between Bodø and Trondheim.
