Kampenlinjen (English: Kampen Line) was a tram line in Oslo that served Kampen in Gamle Oslo, on the eastern section of the city. The tramline was established by Kristiania Sporveisselskab in 1900 as a siding to the Gamlebyen Line from Grønland and up Motzfeldts gate, Tøyengata and Hagegata to Brinken. The section was a single track until 1921. The area is currently served by bus number 60 (Tonsenhagen-Vippetangen), at Kampen and Kampen Park[1]
