Twice the price of the ordinary train for one minute on its slow service, and nineteen against twenty-three on its fast one. You are buying frequency and an extra hour at night, not speed.

Take it if you have children: under-16s travel free with an adult, so one adult with three children pays NOK 268 here against NOK 290 on the ordinary train.

The ticket does not cover any onward journey. If you are not stopping at Oslo S, add a Ruter fare on top.

Tapping out at the airport without having tapped in is charged at the longest distance the train runs.
