Climbing a 2.5% Grade with a 55-Year-Old Helper Locomotive Boasting 5082 kW of Pulling Power
The climb from Halden to Tistedalen in Norway has long been known as a challenge, especially for freight trains, with its 2.5% gradient.
Even today, helper locomotives are commonly used for freight trains on this stretch.
On this particular day in 2022, El14 2166, the oldest remaining of these locomotives, was stationed in Sarpsborg for helper duty.
I had the privilege of joining Gjermund, the train driver, who had traveled as a passenger on the train from Oslo, on his workday this afternoon.
Join me for this rare opportunity to experience the journey from inside the locomotive.

Century-Old Signal System Still Running on a Main Line in Norway
มุมมอง 4Kวันที่ผ่านมา
Imagine a railway system that has remained virtually unchanged for a century, connecting towns and regions with its human-centered operation. On Norway's Solør Line, one of the few remaining railways where trains are dispatched manually using traditional train orders, history, and technology are woven together in a way that is rare in today's automated world. At the heart of this system are the...

Experience the charm and nostalgia at the historic Sysle Station on the Krøderbanen Railway in Norway! This enchanting railway line, which first opened as a narrow-gauge track in 1872, was later converted to standard gauge with the opening of the Bergen Line in 1909. Although it was decommissioned as an NSB line in 1985, the Krøderbanen has been lovingly preserved as a museum railway by the Nor...

    For en flott film! Takk for at du lagde og delte den. To av mine favoritt-lok: El 14 og El 16. Håper lokførerne er forsiktige når de skal ned stigen og ut i pukken når godstoget i nabosporet drar i vei (10:38 i videoen). Litt glatt snø og is der på vinteren så kan en være uheldig og ramle. Gjermund virker som en skikkelig hyggelig fyr - som jo alle lokførere jeg har møtt er 😁🚂 Er det slik at loket som dytter opp Tistedalsbakken må ha mer pådrag enn trekkende lok foran? Ellers kan en risikere at hele toget foran drar i fra og det blir mellomrom som gjør at det blir et skikkelig smell når dytteloket tar det igjen?

    Being an American train enthusiast and watching Cuban rail footage is fascinating, this is all stuff that would be in museums here but for much longer than there, like their cars you can tell this is all stuff from before the revolution and subsequent American blockade. I would love to know how tours of these places are arranged, to see what steam looks like when it hasn't been dressed nicely.

      There are still quite a few left of the steam locomotives that were in use until the sugar industry was reduced around the year 2000. Many are in poor condition, some have been restored externally and put on display as historical monuments, but very few steam locomotives are operational today. Last year, a group tour for railway enthusiasts from England was planned, but it was canceled due to the lack of places where one could be sure to experience steam locomotives in operation.

    Cuba was the only country in the Western Hemisphere still operating steam locomotives before the end of the 1990s. The collapse of the USSR and the decline of Cuban sugar (thanks to Fidel Castro's desire to shift his island's economy away from overdependence on sugar to emphasis on different fields like healthcare, nickel production, et cetera) meant that Cuba's age-old sugar carry locomotives saw the twilight of their career.
