Nordstrand railway station

Nordstrand railway station is the first stop on Østfoldbanen after Oslo Sentralstasjon. The station lies in within the Nordstrand borough of the Oslo municipality. The station is served by local trains operating the Skøyen-Oslo S-Ski service (line 500). Nordstrand station was opened in 1880. It lies 5.95 km from Oslo S.

The station was the scene of a serious railway accident on October 3 1993 when the brakes on a switcher failed causing it to roll northwards, in the wrong direction, from Rosenholm before crashing into a local passenger train at Nordstrand, killing five passengers.
