    • 1956 April, H. A. Vallance, “To Oslo via Stavanger”, in Railway Magazine, page 219:
      The last 61 miles of the journey, from Kongsberg to Oslo, are through much less mountainous country. The railway curves sharply away from the Lågan[sic], and descends steadily, and in places steeply, past the head of Lake Fiskerumvatn to Hokksund, where the connecting line to the Bergen-Oslo Railway at Hønefoss diverges.
