NSB BM87 is a diesel-electric railcar used by Norges Statsbaner between 1941 and 1981. A total of 25 railcars were built by Strømmen in two series. 17 cars built in 1941 with Deutz engines were designated A, while eight cars built in 1952 with Scania Vabis engines were designated B.

The A-series was taken out of service in 1969 while the B-series was taken out of service in 1981. Two cars have been preserved, at the Norwegian Railway Museum and by the Norwegian Railway Association.
