4K CAB VIEW: True to eye view of the Flåm Railway (Myrdal - Flåm)

[@MsSoundguy]

You posted this in June and I'm only seeing it now. I usually react to the beauty with "oooh" or "wow" or "jeez," and they were plentiful, but I outright gasped when you pulled into the station at 26:35, hoping you'd stay slow until we got passed that magnificent waterfall. BUT when you stopped at 26:55, I gasped more and deeper. Thank you for that. When we left the tunnel 33:30, another gasp at the big and more narrow falls. I remembered we were in a tunnel-rich section, so I figured that was it, but no! This is perhaps the most spectacular video you made for us, and I see you're "live" now, so I'll pay what I can to keep you doing these.

[@RailCowGirl]

Thank you! ❤️ I'm so glad the video affected you in such a good way 😃I've longed to be able to show you the true spectacle on this line :D More to come ;) just finished filming a evening autumn run :D where you see the golden colors of autumn everywhere :D

Same here. Only just now seeing it in late Nov. Stunning scenery and camera work!

Just over a year ago our family was lucky enough to do this fabulous train ride. We loved the Huldra spirit singing at the Kjosfossen waterfall (12:56) and your videos instantly take us back there. We absolutely loved our time in Norway and despite not being able to travel at the moment, thankfully we have videos like yours to enjoy! Regards and thank you from Sydney, Aust - Dave and family

Hello Dave, Thank you so much! This is a prime example of why I do these videos. I'm so glad it brings back such fond memories for you and your family. Hopefully we will be able to travel again in the future ❤️ Stay safe and healthy ❤️

Like looking through a window on my 4k Oled just lovely

[@hughmnyks]

I’ve only just discovered your excellent work! This camera setup is fab. The greens really are green. It’s been almost 30 years since I did Myrdal-Flåm-Myrdal (Octob er ‘92) but it’s not the kind of thing you forget! The rolling stock wasn’t particularly stable back then, and when a gang of very enthusiastic Japanese tourists saw the falls at ca. 35 mins., they all crossed from one side of the coach to the other. Think I heard creaking… Keep up the excellent work, you really do take driver’s cab footage to new levels! Tusen takk!!

One of my favourites RCG. Is it just 2 carriages down to Flam ? I am thinking houses are very expensive in that beautiful valley ? Such a beautiful train ride !!

[@timschell4246]

I noticed the difference immediately! I don't love heights, and the depth of field really conveys how high up you are and how steep the drop offs are!

[@WhiteTiger333]

How to choose a favorite video? But this one made such an impression on me by transforming the view along the Flåm line. Not only were the views so crisp, but the new camera really showed just how slowly the train must go to successfully navigate the serpentine route!

The new camera is a great improvement. Thank you for the excellent work. We watch your videos on a 55" Samsung TV and sitting about 6 feet back from it makes us feel like we're in the cab with you. My wife watched with me today and said it would be a fun trip to take until she saw some of the sheer drop offs you pass by daily. Then the comment was something like "you're not getting me on that train!" :-(

[@RailCowGirl]

Tusen takk. Ja, det går sakte på Flåmsbanen :)

[@paulliebenberg3410]

RCG, yes this new camera definitely shows off the steepness of both the track grade and of the topography. Also the slow track speed which isn't as noticeable with the GoPro video. It seemed like you were going really slow after the first station below Myrdal. Normal? I loved seeing all the waterfalls and details like rust on the rails. Definitely had that "lock-down" vibe to it (where are all the people?) which sort of matched the gloomy weather.

[@JiwaPetualang]

Amazing beutifull your country

[@RailCowGirl]

[@goldmole1]

I'm not into making movies, but f I were, this'd be my cam. Beautiful footage, thank for sharing;-) It's the so manniest of your vids of the Flåmsbana, looked at I think all of them. The line keeps fascinating me. Should pay it a visit.

My Goodness but that countryside is absolutely amazing...!!! I want to live there - please! Thank you for sharing. Camera setup - beautiful. Just one question though, is that the speed you have to go all the time on that Line?

[@RailCowGirl]

Yay! :D Yes, the speed on the Flåm line is restricted to 40kmh up and 30kmh down due to the gradient and curvature.

[@alanatolstad4824]

I would imagine maintenance along the line is a full-time job...?---Any idea how long it takes to become a qualified engineer?---Mind-boggling, the amount of blasting it took to carve through mountains...The waterfalls are a wonderful surprise!---How many times a day does the train make that run?

[@RailCowGirl]

To become a engineer/driver in Norway you need to apply for the national rail academy. 1 year of education and up to six months training after that in the company you're hired by.

[@nobodycares902]

SEnsor and lens make for a big difference in photo and video quality. Thank you.

[@RailCowGirl]

Thanks a lot!

[@williamedwards1528]

What is the ruling grade along this route? And do those electric locos have any kind of "dynamic" braking as do the diesel electrics common in the US?

[@RailCowGirl]

55‰ is the ruling grade, and of course they have dynamic braking, would be pretty useless as a modern asynchronous locomotive if they didn’t :) unlike diesel electric the generated energy is returned to the catenary :)

[@josesal]

RCG didn't realize the decline with the other videos, WOW, leaving Myrdal really looks different. What is the angle you start there at because the isn't any indicator. My perspective on the line really did change a lot. Thank you sooo much !

[@RailCowGirl]

Straight into 5.5%

[@josesal]

@@RailCowGirl Sure looks steeper than that, it's a long long 5.5 must have a delicate balance with dynamic brakes. And the other end what a strain on the electric motors with a heavy load.

The only complaint I have is THE SPEED OF THE TRAIN IS TOO SLOW! Is there a reason for the slowness? Other than that the scenery was fantastic!

[@RailCowGirl]

The speed on this line is 40kmh up and 30kmh down due to the gradient and curvature. PHYSICS is the reason. ;)

[@dougkathydavies3024]

Climbing that hill up to Myrdal in winter must be a challenge.

[@Innerspace100]

It's quite a gradient, isn't it... They use a banking loco both on the way up and down, even with the shorter config. of four carriages. But even that can be scary, especially in humid below zero temperatures. Not to mention in autumn when there are leaves on the line. I'm in awe of The Cowgirl and all her colleagues. They're consumate professionals.
