Today we're going to the freight terminal in Oslo, Alnabru. This is more or less a continuation of the same train as in the last video • 4K CABVIEW: Plow seaso...
We're heading off to Alnabru freight terminal through a beautiful snowy landscape. When we're getting closer to our destination we'll be pulled over to the sides more often to date due to a problem with a critical switch point at Alnabru. Combine this with the rush of commuter trains out of Oslo, and you have the waiting game going.

Just want to add that the water tower at Austvoll kzbin.info/www/bejne/e4bGhGqZbb6chLc is one of the two last water towers of it's kind on the original Bergen Line. The other one is located at Stryken on the Gjøvik Line. Both of these has a circular foundation. There used to be a tower at Gol as well, but it was torn down during the renovation of the station there, but that tower had a square foundation. When it comes to shaking camera, this is because the system I have was designed for the EL18 and FLIRT specifically. A new camera was ordered in December but due to the current chip shortage and freight challenges.... well I'm still waiting for for it to arrive... The guys at Foto.no is working really hard to get it for me. Huge shout out for them for being so awesome and providing such good service!

OK. It's official. We are definitely spoiled. Just watched the whole thing on my UHD large screen. The photography makes it seem like I'm in your cab. Small signs are easy to read. Countryside is especially beautiful when accented by snow showing nice detail nearby and on far away mountains. I checked out how much your camera and lens cost. Holy cow! And you mastered your annotations along the way giving a very professional presentation. Only question I have when you occasionally say "oompa-oomp" along the way, what does that mean? And thanks again. ❤

Really enjoyed watching that. What a fabulous place to work! I did 25 years on the railway here in the UK as a Guard and a station controller. In the early days when we had slam door trains, we used to to an early morning run that would take us through the New Forest area of Hampshire. We'd always stop at Beaulieu Road station, a tiny place in the middle of nowhere. I remember stepping down onto the platform./ All you could hear was the birds singing their dawn chorus and the hot resistors under the train just ticking away to themselves. Very happy days indeed. Thank you for posting this video, watching it really made my day. :-)

I love Honefoss station - just the name is nice, and junction stations are always interesting - but also Honeyfoss has a lot of intruiging "other" buildings around it - and the station building itself is lovely. There are several through tracks through the station (from the Drammen direction) but in all your videos I have only ever seen just the main platform one in use, even if not stopping at Honeyfoss!

Wow! Been working down in Chile and Peru for just over three months and finally got a chance to watch one of your video and was pleasantly surprise to see you now operating a freight-train had no idea until seeing this video you did both freight and passenger train operations. I guess until seeing this video I had the idea that train engineers were assigned to either freight or passenger service duty. Kind of silly of me to think that but just goes to show how wrong my assumption was. Great video, thoroughly enjoyed seeing a different side to your engineering abilities, RailCowGirl your one of the BEST that's for sure.

I've been trying to figure out if this was real or not lol. Finally realized at just after 3:02:39 the glare from the incoming train isn't natural. It just appears and disappears instead of panning across as it passes and it never got progressively lighter it just got bright and the disappeared as soon as the other train passed. Some things I've seen made me wonder if it was created or recorded but I am not used to super high Def and I have those tvs now so sometimes things look fake. I gotta say, I'm actually drastically more impressed that it is simulated. That is a shit ton of detail! Unbelievable! Looks like that unreal engine shit. Very high quality work. I've had videos like this running on one of our tvs and love checking in at various times and watching bits of the trail. Very cool and very cool idea.

Hi RCG, thank you so so much for explaining the Train Thor situation, like you said, things were being done the wrong way, and got caught out. It sort of makes your timing to move over to freight, even better :) Lets hope it doesn't involve too many other KZbinr's. I will miss him, he took us thru different area's of your country. Will most of your freight run's be on the Bergen Line, or is there a chance you might get to go in other directions ?? Cheers :)

Feels strange having to be re-certified on lines I ran for nearly 10 years where nothing has really changed since I last went there. LOL.

Either way I enjoyed your journey over the silver rails.

I like all the videos of Rail Cow Girl (since a long time, when she was "Hindu Cow Girl"), but I realized I like the stabilised videos more. The shaky cam is not my favourite video effect in the movies - and here also, it seems to me that the camera shaking chips away from the impression of serenity and stability that are given by other videos she uploaded, where I can feel like I am effortlessly flying at 0 gravity over the rail lines, in a beautiful landscape. But a big "Thank you for your effort!", anyway!

Hopefully I'll be able to rid of that shakiness.. . it's either a bit shaky or no video at all.

When you say a 25% gradient, you mean 1 foot in 25 feet, or 4%. Correct?

25 ‰ (per mille) = 2.5% (per cent) = 25m vertical per 1km horizontal.

OK, I'm not after any details, but I would still like to know what happened to Train Thor, I watched nearly all his videos, and if you go to his channel, there's NO video's, NO contact info, NO explanation...he had a good thing going, and then WHAM, stopped....was is KZbin or the "train" company ?? That's all, I'd like to know...please :)

I won't go into details, but a permanent ban on filming was issued in the Vy-group due to safety and liability. There is a reason I NEVER used GPS or showed the trains true speed. Simply because the data can be off making it look like you're speeding. That reflects TRULY badly on the company and the safety. You reap what you sow... The ban burned down other KZbinrs as well, and the pure recklessness is a testament that this is not for everyone. If you're unable to see the reach of your own actions, and how it reflects on everyone else, then you should not be doing this at all. The person responsible for this should be sitting very quietly in the boat for a good while before the National Rail Administration issues a nation wide ban on filming in the cab! Guess this sums it up.

Have the railroads in Norway ever thought of imitating what the regional transit agency in Chicago--METRA--and the Chicago Transit Authority did? Both Metra and the CTA officially installed cameras in almost all of their trains to automatically film the trips from the engineer's point of view. Then both Metra and the CTA put the videos on KZbin for people to watch. Also, in addition, the CTA installed cameras in some of their buses so you could take a trip by bus in what is called "virtual reality" if you want to.
