Torpekspressen coachorShuttle to Torp station?

The short answer

These do not go to the same place, so price is not the comparison. The Torpekspressen coach reaches Oslo bussterminal and Oslo S; the Shuttle to Torp station does not. This is a four-minute connection, not a journey to Oslo: it carries you to the railway station and no further. The onward train fare is not published — Vy quotes it only inside its own booking flow. Still, the rail route is real, runs far earlier and later than the coach, and is what the airport recommends first. Expect to pay this 55 kr on top of whatever Vy quotes you.

The Shuttle to Torp station is quicker: 4 min against 1 h 35.

Torpekspressen coach: 08:10–22:10. Shuttle to Torp station: 04:42–22:43.

Book before the day. Same-day purchases cost 360 kr instead of 339 kr even online, and only an advance ticket carries a seat guarantee.

It runs 08:10 to 22:10 and the terminal is locked at night. If your flight is outside those hours there is no coach and nowhere to wait — plan this before you fly, not after you land.

It is timed to Ryanair and Wizz Air. If you flew anything else, check that a departure actually exists for your arrival.

The operator calls itself faster than the train. To Oslo S it is not: about 101 minutes door to door against 97 to 99 by rail.

A family should check the child fare — 179 kr against 339 kr for ages 4 to 15 is close to half.

The cheapest ticket is valid from 2 hours before to 10 hours after the time you booked, but it cannot be changed.

The price on this page is only the shuttle. The train to Oslo is a second fare that no source would give up, so no total for the rail journey exists here.

Take this route if you are flying early or late — it runs from 04:42, while the coach does not start until 08:10.

It is also slightly faster to Oslo S than the coach, at 97 to 99 minutes against about 101, despite the change.

Nothing reaches Oslo between 22:43 and 04:42, and on Sunday mornings nothing before 06:41.
