I have watched and enjoyed all 5 vids. The commentary was of particular interest. None more so that it helped me pronounce the station names correctly. Thank you for posting these vids.
Thx Ian! Glad you liked it.
Have you ever heard the American expression "to hit something out of the park"? Because that's what you did with this video. Great explanations and maps (thanks for freezing the video while showing them), along with breathtaking scenery illuminated by that long, long northern sunset/twilight that I love so much. (As a resident of latitude 34N, where the sun sets quickly around 8:30PM on the longest day of the year, I only get to see it in videos!)
Thanks for commenting and kind words obkb1! I love those long summer nights too. Especially in northern Norway where the sun don’t set for 2 month’s. We started the journey from Hønefoss at 7pm and ended the journey in Kongsvinger 11 pm.
As a new subscriber, I would absolutely agree with Dieter's comments. Thank you for showing us the rolling countryside of Norway as opposed to the beauty of the high mountains over the line to Bergen Keep driving and keep up the excellent work!
Thx alot Larry! And welcome to the channel. I hope you like the rest of it. My editing skills keep getting better from the point of zero when i started the channel :D
Thank you, "TNT", for this superb series of videos, in which you not only show us new areas of Norway all over the world, but also do a great job of providing the video with additional information, e.g. about the old narrow-gauge railway or other railway-related facts. The embedded drone videos were breathtaking, especially when you flew between the overhead wires.
Sometimes the videos were a bit overexposed, so some details of the area were a bit lost, but I guess you are still "in the experimental phase".
I am already looking forward to the further videos with the particularly good explanations - even in English (!), so that you will surely get many subscribers all over the world in a short time - and I am grateful that you speak these explanations instead of fading them in with subtitles. I left a subscription right away.
Stay healthy and have a good and accident-free trip!

Thanks for the nice comment Enno! Yes this is a learning process for me. Both filming and editing. Its not so easy to get good films when you cant control your camera during the journey. I just have to fix it in place and hope for the best :D
Very informative and enjoyable. Don't apologize for showing and explaining the maps and signals. I've been very interrested in railroad maps and signals since I was a kid in the 1950's, so I appreciate what you are doing. And I expect many more viewers do as well. Cheers from Wisconsin!
Thx Andrew! Glad you liked it.
Thank you for uploading this video series! In addition to the beautiful Norwegian landscape, I enjoyed the insight into the Norwegian railway system thanks to the very good explanations. The videos stop and the oral explanation I like more than fade-in panels. I´m looking forward to more videos.
Thank you Dieter! Glad you enjoyed it! I’ll start editing a vid about the line that goes near my house soon. One of the few remaining lines with an old signal system. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solør_Line
@@thenorwegiantraindriver4788 Nice to be able to experience a route that is not electrified and is only used by freight trains. I am particulary looking forward to the signal system. So far I only know the standard signals in Norway. Until then, I wish you all the best and always a safe journey! Best regards Dieter
Greetings from the USA. I enjoy your videos and the explanation of the signals. You are the only one thus far I have found that does that, and I have enjoyed many videos from other vloggers.
Thx Leland! Glad you liked it.
Hei og takk for historie-timen. Hølandbanen og båtturen til Halden viste jrg ikke noe om i det hele tatt, takk for historien. Jeg kommer til og følge videoenuttene dine mer og mer. takknemmelig hilsen fra Harald K
Tusen takk for det Haka. Prøver å finne litt fun facts å krydre med :D
You can see that there are a number of 'nerds' who watch your wonderful and informative videos. Now from on of them, I watch your and other videos with one eye on the beautiful countryside and the other looking for patterns in signs and other items related to the railroad. Some I have figured out, others drivers like yourself have explained, now one that I have noticed a definite pattern. About 100 m just past the main station entry signal there are a pair of poles with a black and white strip spiral pattern. would think it is either a distance indicator or other type marker, so an explanation would be welcomed. I won't even try to ask about all the other stripped poles I see along the line, though we now know what the red and white strip section poles are for. Again thanks for what you are doing.
Hi Sharon and thx for commenting and asking! That pole show the shunting limit for the station. I have explained most of them throughout my videos, but if you wanna know right away go to part 3 of my Sweden video and read the comment from mrkinchtoo. He asked the same :D And I answered several of those poles.
Excellent explanation! 20 years ago I was in Norway and had an enjoyable day on a great heritage railway, but had to travel by bus from the capital to an outer suburban station as there was trackwork. In Victoria, Australia where I live, that's also common on quite a few weekends.
I hope the patronage on NSR is recovering after (hopefully) the worst of COVID-19. My city of Melbourne and the slightly larger Sydney, Oz are in lockdown so very few are using trains, trams or buses (or in Sydney, ferries) as there are travel restrictions: in Melbourne, five km only.
Thanks for commenting Edmund! Very nice to have viewers that far away. I hope you get to visit again sometime. In Scandinavia transport is a so called “society criticality profession” , so my work day has not changed due to COVID one bit thankfully.
Outstanding video.
Thx alot R.M. :D
One step closer to the toothpick factory..... :O)
I'm posting a video now (Solør Line part 2) Where i actually drive by a toothpick factory where i actually worked :D How is that for a fun fact :D
Thanks for the long trip with so much detail. Do freight train drivers have to do a patience test? So many stop/starts, do you have a schedule or take pot luck?
Hi John and thx for commenting! Patience test was a good idea :D I had many tests, but not that one :D Yes we have a schedule and we know when to stop usually. It's when delays happen it's all a gamble. Like today there was an power outtage half an hour before Kongsvinger (I was waiting for my collegue to help him shunt in some wagons to the timber terminal). So there was a two hour wait. Netflix helps alot :D
🤓👍🏻
Where you were standing still in the start of the video, is that a common place for freight trains to stop? I want to take some pictures and videos of trains at Sagdalen station :)
I really like your videos, and super informative!
Heey. And thx for commenting! No this is an unusual stop. That's why i made a note about the block signal. But when its heavy traffic trains will have to wait there, so if you bring your camera you should be able to catch some trains :D
@@ladee1090 Thx Ladee. i aim to please :D
🇳🇱👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🍀
Last question from me. I promise! If you have stations or stops that say "Not for Passengers", then what is their purpose? Are they stations no longer serviced because of low traffic but the train company keeps them in case some day they can re-activate them again? Or, do train employees, for some reason, use these no passenger platforms?
I do love questions Mike, so ask away! The main purpose for stations is actually to meet other trains when there is just a single track on the line. If you see a platform and just one track it’s called a stop, or meeting point(or holdeplass in Norwegian) and not a station in railroad jargon. So several stations are built without platforms just to meet and pass other trains. And yes, you are right about some stations closed for passengers due to low volume. I could not think of a station re opening, but I don’t see why it could not happen.
@@thenorwegiantraindriver4788 - Wow! I should have figured out the part about they are used to meet other trains. Awesome answer!!!
Can you add subtitles pls?
Hei. Selv om du har en kollega i bakre lokomotiv, er lokomotivevne "koblet sammen"slik at du i fremste lokken fjernstyrer bakre lok?
Nope, vi må ha kontakt via togradio eller telefon. De kan bare kobles sammen med kabel når dem går etter hverandre. Men som regel vet vi når vi må dytte på da. Vi har stort sett bare kontakt gjennom Oslo, der det er mye signaler og tett trafikk.
Hei, jeg bare lurte på om du kan forklare hvem som eier jernbanenettet i norge, og hvem som bruker det. Hvis du kan så er det bra om du går inn i detalj.
Heisann. Takk for kommentar og spørsmål! Eier blir Bane Nor, som også drifter jernbanenettet. Det er et statlig organ. Det ble en bra omorganiserig i 2016 Da både Bane Nor og Jernbanedirektoratet opprettet. Sistnevnte er underlagt samferdseldep og skal utvikle jernbanen. Statens jernbanetilsyn er tilsynsmyndighet i lover og regler. Hvem som bruker det er blitt veldig mange! Vy er størst. Vy sitt datterselskap Vy Gjøvikbanen kjører gjøvikbanen. Eid av staten er også flytoget. Så har du de nye på persontrafikk: Go-Ahead, SJ. Godsselskaper er enda flere.
