Gardermoen Station
Location within Akershus

The station is located 48 kilometres (30 mi) from Oslo Central Station. The station is staffed, and there is a single bus route, and several coach services, to and from the airport. It opened in 1998, along with the new airport. During 2000–2001, there were several derailments at the station. South of the station is a terminal for unloading freight trains carrying aviation fuel.


Location


Gardermoen is at kilometer marker 51.85 (32.22 mi) from Oslo S, but the actual distance is only 48.07 km (29.87 mi). This is because the distance markers follow the slightly longer Hoved Line between Oslo and Lillestrøm. The station is built directly below the airport terminal, and access is obtained via escalators or elevators located in the airport's arrival hall. North of the station, the tracks run in a tunnel below the terminal and runway area. The tracks on platform 2 and 3 only have connection southwards; north of the station they are only connected to a short turning track.[1]

Aviation fuel is transported to the airport by train. CargoNet hauls a daily train load of fuel from Sjursøya, with an unloading terminal just south of the passenger station. They are the only freight trains to use the Gardermoen Line.[2]

The station is staffed from 07:00 to 22:00 on weekdays, with reduced opening hours on weekends. The platform (but not necessarily the trains) are wheelchair accessible, and an escort service for disabled persons can be prebooked. Baggage trolleys are available, and a wide selection of services, including cafes, kiosks, banks and police, are available at the airport terminal, as are taxis.[4] A single local bus route, Ruter no. 855, also serves the airport from Kløfta, Jessheim and Maura.[5] There are many coaches from all parts of the country that also serve the airport, as well as coach services to Oslo operated by Flybussekspressen and SAS Ground Services.[6]

Vy


The Oslo Commuter Rail operated by Vy, provides one service in each direction each hour—line L12 from Kongsberg Station via Oslo Central to Eidsvoll Station. VY also provides 2 regional services each hour—Line R10 Drammen - Lillehammer and Line R11 Eidsvoll - Skien.


SJ Norge


On the Dovre Line to Trondheim Central Station, five daily express trains are also offered, including one night train. These services do not allow local traffic between Oslo and the airport, since the station is "entry only" for northbound trains towards Trondheim and "exit only" for southbound trains towards Oslo.[11]


History


Main article: Gardermoen Line

The decision to build the station, railway and airport was taken by the Parliament on 8 October 1992. NSB Gardermobanen, a subsidiary of the Norwegian State Railways, was created to build the line and station, as well as operate the Flytoget airport express train services.[12] Construction of the station was performed in parallel with the construction of the airport, and the station is built in the same style as the rest of the airport, in postmodernist concrete and wood.[13]

The station was taken into use on 27 September 1998, and public services commenced along with the opening of the airport on 8 October 1998.[14] In 2001, as part of a reorganization of NSB Gardermobanen, the ownership of the station was transferred to the Norwegian National Rail Administration.[12]


Incidents


In 2000–01, the Airport Express Train experienced three derailments with empty trains at Gardermoen; one caused by the engineer falling asleep and two by the train passing a red light.[15][16][17][18] No more such accidents occurred after automatic train control was installed in 2001.[19]
