Train-hall fire in Oslo

On Saturday morning a fire burned the roof of one of Bane Nor’s train-halls in Lodalen, Oslo.

At 12 o’clock, police said the fire was extinguished and no people were injured. Further work to continue fire suppression will take a while.

The fire was reported at 11.15 am. The fire department arrived and stated that the roof structure was on fire. Part of the construction had to be demolished to ensure that the fire did not spread to other parts of the building.

Bane Nor has a workshop in Lodalen, east Oslo. Here there is a five-track train-hall. Four of them are 210 meters long. There is also a wagon-hall here with four train tracks totaling 375 meters.

The fire did not affect train traffic.
