Hurrah! A wonderful new video from RCG shot on a brilliant day with the light behind and the images crystal clear. Hours of great distraction to look forward to! Thank you so much.

[@RailCowGirl]

Sorry about the slightly out of focus images in the first tunnels, it is rectified with a refocus later in the film. This time we're riding the South Line in Norway. Combine this trip with the latest News Letter, Monthly moo #21, and you'll be able to work out the Track side speed signalling! I'm so glad I managed to finish this video for the weekend, despite the recent events in the Bergen Line. Enjoy!

hello, we will be entitled to one video per season for this line? It's wonderful to be able to compare the colors 🥰

This beat today race in Monaco F1. Huge thanks for sharing these moments of a beautiful landscape. Great to see you back on the track .

[@RailCowGirl]

This should beat any F1 races post 1997 when they started attacking the mechanical grip, forcing the teams to focus on aerodynamic grip. And when they banned refuelling and came up with DRS......to me it turned into a cheap arcade game, like a nerfed version of Wipe Out.

[@ericthefenderfan8056]

This was an absolutely brilliant video! I am both a train enthusiast and a railway worker here in the USA, and as such I was absolutely fascinated to watch every single minute of this video. The scenery was spectacular, but the engineering of the right-of-way especaily all those tunnels took my breath away. Norway is obviously filled with great scenery, but it is also filled with superb railway operating and engineering personnel, and you video did them very proud. Thank you for a very entertaining and educational 4 hours. Very well done.

[@deborahhobbs7664]

New RCG!!!🎉🎉🎉 Yes!!

[@freiherr260]

For those interested in geology; this railroad follows both minor and major geological depressions in the landscape. This was done to limit the number of tunnels nessecary, thus making it cheaper to build. This also means that the tracks run mostly along lower parts of the landscape, and is one of the reasons for all the countless lakes and rivers you see along the line.

[@49a463]

Sørlandsbanen. Nydelig! Og med et (antar jeg) flunkende nytt lok. Kjempeflott!🤩

Congrats on this great comeback video! A new line, a new landscape, a new locomotive (awesome big BR 159 Eurodual!) and fewer tunnels, but more fancy steel bridges! I am very grateful that despite your workload you still find time to edit these amazing videos! 👍👍👍

[@RailCowGirl]

Operated the EuroDual everyday in GreenCargo as well. There are some minor differences from the Prototypes, but still the same loco :D

Thank you for the beautiful video. The light is incredible. You were very lucky when you were shooting the video. Al those pine trees just look big bonsai trees on the rocks.
