Oslo Sentralstasjon ( German  Oslo Central Station ), abbreviated Oslo S , is the main train station of the city of Oslo and the largest train station in Norway .

history

The station is the successor to the Østbanestasjonen (Oslo Ø) built in 1854 and opened in 1981. With this construction project, the long-distance transport tasks of the Vestbanestasjonen station (Oslo V) were given up. The trains were led through the newly built Oslotunnel to Oslo S.

In addition to long-distance and local trains, the Flytoget , an express train that connects the Norwegian capital with Oslo-Gardermoen Airport , stops at this traffic junction , all six underground lines ( Oslo T-bane ) , trams and bus lines in the Oslo conurbation. The stop at the train station is called Jernbanetorget . Around 150,000 travelers use this station every day.

The station consists of three main buildings, all of which are interconnected. These are the actual main train station, the Flytoget AS terminal and the modernized Østbanehallen, the oldest part of the complex.

Almost all of the Norges Statsbaner's long-distance trains start or end here.
