Train Oslo - Moss

Going by train from Oslo to Moss, you have two alternatives:
1. taking the local train that stops on each station and ends at Moss or
2. the fast train, a train that usually goes from Oslo to Halden near the Swedish border.
This fast train does not stop before Moss, and it takes only 40 minutes.
No wonder many of the citizens of Moss work in Oslo!

But before you get on the train, you have to decide on which waggon to enter.
* The basic choice is the Regular Waggon.
* Adding money to your ticket you may chose Comfort, giving you a newspaper and free coffee and – I think – an internet connection for your PC.
* You can also enter the Quiet Waggon (Stille in Norwegian), but that means quiet. No mobile telephone. Hardly any whispering. This is the waggon for those who want to slumber on the train.
* If you have a monthly subscription, you will use the one with a M (for Monthly).
