[@paulbishop6091]

Without a doubt the best video on KZbin x

[@beverleydobson3442]

still without a doubt the best video. not just on youtube, but the whole internet

[@florianabacki1621]

Wow, what a beautiful side views! Great idea!

[@RailCowGirl]

Thank you very much!

[@ThePathfinder66]

Beautiful! This is one I will be replaying all the time, love that afternoon/sunset warmth. Side views are gorgeous.

[@ravishanker8160]

Recently I got an 85 inch Sony 4K tv and these videos have become so addictingly pleasurable to watch on a big TV screen. I play these videos and do stuff around my home and doing dishes has never been so meditatively calm.

[@garrystarkey5698]

Another fantastic video. The scenery is stunning. Thank-you RailCowGirl

[@RailCowGirl]

Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks a lot for watching!

[@NaomiKGarza]

Finse hooked me up with this video she told me I'd love it. So green n beautiful Norway 🇳🇴

[@RailCowGirl]

I hope you did enjoy it!

@@RailCowGirl Yeah, keep them videos coming RCG😀❤

[@pitsrah19660522]

Very beautiful ride. I have watched some winter cabrides now and I was looking for a summer ride Ål-Bergen. I found this one. Nice sideview: seeing the EL18 locomotive in the sides of the carriages of the other train. There are plenty of nice and beautiful sideviews during this trip. I mention here: Finse and surroundings; the setting sun in the mountains and when arriving in Bergen. Before that, there are beautiful shots of Sørfjorden between Stanghelle and Trengereid. Also: nice downward view at 1h20m30s: the Flåmsbana. These are just a few of the wonderful ride. Now, I have to find a summer or autumn ride in the opposite direction. You are privileged, to ride in such a beautiful part of your country. But there can also be "nightmare conditions'. I look forward to watch more videos of your working area. 🙂🙂😉 stay safe and sound, RCG!!

[@davidcole258]

i love it when you have the second camera out to the side it shows so much more of your beautiful country.

[@RailCowGirl]

So glad you enjoyed it :D

[@desertrose2059]

I love all your videos, I especially love the ones like this where you have a view out the side it gives such a better understanding of the surrounding country. This is by far my favorite!

[@Finse1605]

Your best yet HinduCowGirl. The work put into this clearly shows.

[@RailCowGirl]

Yaaay! :D

[@danyo7460]

This is honestly the best train ride video I ever seen in my life !

[@AudioBookKnowledge]

U are

[@WhiteTiger333]

From about 20:50 on (clock time, not video time), the late light bouncing off the mountains and flooding across the land is simply exquisite. And so cool to have the setting sun shining through the high Bergen station window as you arrived. Kind of "Stonehenge-y". :D

[@fredlovejoy6162]

Love the side views !!

[@zoqaeski]

I agree with Serena's comment: this is truly your best video yet, and the effort you've put into editing has really paid off. How do you drive through such incredible scenery and not get distracted by it?

Of all the videos I've seen of the run between Al and Bergen, this is the best! The side views are wonderful. Thanks so much for the extra work editing the video. Wow! 10:30 at night and the sun is just setting. Norway is a beautiful country and your videos prove that. Thanks again for the work you do and attention to detain you put into your videos, RailCowGirl!

One word "Awesome"!

[@hamshackleton]

Beautiful scenery, but very hostile-looking. Nice side views too. I think this is the first time I've seen the trip 'over the top' past Finse in the summertime.

[@notinterested2425]

Norway: hey it's summer! Finse: Nope!

[@WhiteTiger333]

Wow - I just realized what I was seeing at 52:30 on the side view. The ice had not completely melted yet in those waters. And by the time you got to Finse...well, still winter. :D Then right back to summer on the other side of the mountain. Microclimates are so fascinating.

[@RailCowGirl]

The waters are ice free ;)

[@sayedart3dmodels34]

Amazing ......

[@paulroberts8946]

Why is it whenever I watch your vlogs Monty Pythons dead parrot sketch irresistibly come to mind ? Love the side views on this vlog by the way it’s like being a passenger on your train.

[@MauriceBoxman]

Just came back from a holiday trip where I stayed near Geilo with a view of this exact line (just before Geilo). Nice to see this. Edit: 16:00 is where you exactly pass the house that is straight across from where I stayed!

[@dmedlin8118]

Great video! That train horn sounds like an electric donkey braying, or noisy brakes!

[@svenpran2578]

At 30:16 a short piece of rails can be noticed at the left side of the line. This is all that remains from a memorial held there at the place where "East" and "West" met 100 years ago when the line was originally connected.

[@svenpran2578]

Celebration - not memorial

Love this, You do pretty work Girl.

[@RailCowGirl]

Thank you so much! ❤️

[@rogersexton7857]

As always an absolutely superb video! I do very much like the beautiful side views. However, at Hol (10 55 into the video) I wish you had changed to the head-on view when the train from Bergen approached. Very kind regards

[@Esperantisto]

I'll be on the Oslo to Finse train on the 11th at 6:30am and then continuing to Bergen on the next train. It would be sooo cool to be on your train!

[@p0ly73]

[@ohneEisen]

Nice summer sunny afternoon trip! There are some eastbound trains to meet us @: 10:50 Hol (El18 with yellow passenger train in the small window); 40:12 Haugastol (passing Et57 Unit nonstop); 51:50 Tunga (freight with El ??); 2:02:00 Voss (freight with El14) 2157; 2:59:40 Arna (Et57 Unit). p. s.: Good Video, but for me the sideviews were a little too many & some of them little too long.

[@mathewrussell1533]

The EL18 seem like absolute rock solid machines. For a 20 year old loco that must get worked absolutely to death it still seems extremely quiet and reliable. especially in the harsh winter conditions you have there. Do you have many faults these days or do they just keep going and going.

[@knobacres]

I can see the diamond shaped signs that indicate where you are supposed to sound the horn. What I haven't figured out is why, at any point, why the horn needs to be sounded. There doesn't seem to be any consistent reason like approaching a road crossing, station, bridge or tunnel.

[@jonahbetgen8981]

Love it :)

[@zugfotografiethurgau7741]

1:20:30 There should be a train on Flåmsbana, then it would be more perfect.

[@MrAlbin1974]

Meget bra video. 😊 måtte begynne å følge deg. 😉 En ting jeg lurte på: kjører dere ikke «Signatur» togene til Bergen lengre. ?🤔

[@RailCowGirl]

Det er mange år siden det ble slutt på det. Det ble trangt med togsett etter brannen på Hallingskeid, og togsettene var ikke bygget for vinterene på høyfjellet.

@@RailCowGirl Indeed! Well, now I do remember that we did have some warm days in June, but we are not really used to saying "goodbye winter" until later in June/July. And snow still in July is not that exceptional. (I have been at Ustaoset regularly since 1945, am due back again in August, and I have experienced all sorts of weather.) I really do love your videos !

At 58.02, in Finse, especially - that's a lot of snow cover! Yet here it is June. Does this area ever melt off, maybe by August?

Nope :)

According to: [en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bergen_Line], "...passenger trains were since the late 1980s rerouted via Drammen instead of via Roa." Are the KM markers west of Hønefoss measured to Oslo via Drammen or Roa?

You cannot drive along the route at all between Haugastøl and Voss. Oslo - Haugastøl could be done in some 5 hours effective driving.

Any idea What the yellow triangles with numbers in them some times 5 up to 10 so far have seen? Can't make any sense of them.

[@RailCowGirl]

They’re speed signs. Pointing up = increased line speed Pointing down = warning of reduced line speed ahead (this is followed with a small triangle pointing down, indicating where the speed limit must be enforced) Numbers: 9 = 90km/h 10 = 100 13 = 130 16 = 160
