Railway Disruptions Hit Norway

Published: 2024-08-26

Railway disruptions are affecting travelers in Norway as multiple train lines face closures.

The Rørosbanen line is shut between Røros and Støren due to a derailment, with no clear timeline for reopening.

Bane Nor, the railway infrastructure company, plans to provide an update at noon.

Meanwhile, the R60 Hamar-Trondheim line is the only one impacted by this closure, while trains from Røros southward continue to operate normally.

Additionally, track work has led to the closure of the Marienborg-Leangen stretch in Trondheim and parts of the Dovrebanen and Rørosbanen lines.

Bane Nor advises travelers to check with train companies for more information and notes that buses are replacing trains on affected routes.
