The Hjuksebø train disaster occurred on the Sørlandet Line between Hjuksebø and Holtsås, Telemark, Norway on 15 November 1950. The Kristiansand-to-Oslo express had been due to pass through Hjuksebø, but was delayed, and the shunter believed he had time to turn a waiting freight-train around before it arrived, by shunting a number of freight cars out of the way. As he had failed to attach them to the engine, however, the cars ran downhill towards Holtsås station, straight into the express, killing fourteen. At the time, it was Norway's worst peacetime railway accident.

  • Hjuksebø-ulykken var en tågolycka som inträffade den 15 november 1950 klockan 10.50.33. Det var en av de värsta tågolyckorna i Norge. Ett nordgående expresståg från Kristiansand kolliderade med två godsvagnar mellan och Hjuksebø stationer i Telemark fylke. Expresstågets manövervagn som gick längst norrut i tågsättet blev totalförstörd i olyckan. Det var totalt 20 passagerare i denna vagnen då kollisionen inträffade, och elva av passagerarna samt lokföraren omkom omedelbart. Åtta passagerare blev svårt skadade och två av dessa dog senare av skadorna. Det totala antalet omkomna efter olyckan var alltså 14 personer. (sv)
