Dal station is the terminal for the R13 line from Drammen
The line, however, continues to Eidsvoll, but it is only used by freight trains
Here is one freight train passing through the station
243 117 with the train 41607 on the way from Skoghall to Sørli
I was expecting one more freight train here, but it took the other route through Gardermoen
And the airport is very near indeed

Like all stations in Norway, it is clean and modern inside

Oslo S
This summer, the freight to/from Trelleborg is passing through Oslo S before switching to Østfoldbanen
This is because of the railworks on the old line to Ski. The only option is to use the Blixtunnel, which requires a turnaround at Skøyen
To speed up the process, there are locomotives at both ends
