English: The Bekkelaget Slide was a slide of clay, mud and rocks which occurred on the early morning of October 7, 1953 at Bekkelaget in Oslo, Norway. They railway, Østfoldbanen, and the road, Mosseveien, which form Oslo's chief communications to the south of the east side of the Oslofjord, slid out for a distance of 100 m together with the adjacent lower natural slope. In all, three private cars, two lorries and an omnibus were involved in the slide. A fast train went by five minutes before, and a local train managed to stop only 30 m from the slide. Four passengers in the bus lost their lives, and one train passenger of a heart attack. (See Technical report 1954).
