Oh how terrible. I hope those that were airlifted out pull through.

Well, the news has been updated to 37 injured, two (a 35 year old woman and a six year old boy) seriously injured. 26 of the injured people has been taken to the local hospital, seven flown down to Oslo, and 4 taken across the border to the Swedish hospital in Arvika.

Hopefully there won't be any fatalities in this accident. Which is sheer luck, given that the first car flipped over on the derailment. A picture from inside the car during the evacuation looks like this (roof on the left, floor on the right):
