Waldemar Hoff
Waldemar Hoff (22 May 1886 – 16 July 1947) was a Norwegian railway director. He started his career at Norsk Hovedjernbane in 1906 and became a traffic inspector in 1916. In 1933 he was appointed district director in Drammen, and in 1939 he rose to director-general of the Norwegian State Railways.
During the Nazi occupation of Norway he was deposed. After the war, he tried to regain his position, but in 1946 he left that plan and became regional director of the European Central Inland Transport Organization. He died in July 1947 at the age of 61.
His daughter, Anne-Marie Hoff (born 1915), married Trygve Meinstad, a former resistance member who later became the Norwegian State Railways district director in Oslo in 1962, and who chaired Østfold Bilruter and Hadeland Bilselskap.
