Very interesting. I took the Bergen to Oslo train route in 1992, but it was at night so honestly don't remember much - it was late in the season, also, so it was cold and slushy, and think the train stopped a lot. Not sure I realized what the Flam line was, thought it was all the same train route but you learn something new right and there is so much to see in Norway, it is kind of overwhelming. Just getting around is an adventure in itself. In Bergen, I asked about camping at the Information Kiosk and I was told there was none at that time, but that if I took the Funicular on the last trip up I could find someplace to camp there which I believe is allowed in Norway but she told me not to tell anyone. LOL. Overall I would say it was a bit late in the year to be camping even in September too cold and was not comfortable with the idea. Bergen is quite built up along the fjord. I had a nice walk down from the top of the Funicular in morning, very nice people out for a morning walk along the way, even an American or two, Bergen has more of a small town feel than Oslo although almost every town in Norway has a small town feel where you run into people that you meet again and again.
I don't know what to say; I'm completely flabbergasted! It's like I just visited Heaven via a train! Everything is so beautiful, yet peaceful, exciting, and enjoyable at the same time. I am truly grateful to have seen this video! Thank you, Simon and Will!
Thanks for rekindling our memories of Norway. In 1997 we travelled from Newcastle to Bergen via the Color Line ferry, sadly no more. We stayed over in Bergen until the next return ferry back three days later and celebrated our Silver wedding anniversary there. We took the Norway in a Nutshell tour travelling on the Bergen Oslo line to Myrdal and the Flåmsbana down to the fjord. A trip on the ferry to Gudvengen and a coach trip to Voss for the return trip to Bergen almost 12 hours later. A Chinese meal rounded off a magnificent September 1997, 25 happy years married and my 51st Birthday. We returned to Norway in 2003 via a fjord cruise, sadly our last visit. One trip I would recomend is a trip up the Dalsnibba from Geiranger, a truly epic trip.#
What wonderful memories Mike, thank you for sharing, sounds like amazing trips. Thanks for the extra tip as well, we will check that out. All the best 😊
I'm just lost for words for this beautiful train journey. I never get tired watching or traveling by train. Love to see trains of different countries. Thankyou for this beautiful video
We have another trip across Norway next week, featuring a 7 hour train journey. I am sure you like this one as well. It does offer a great way for everyone in your party to see the scenery rather than one having to concentrate on driving.
Gm ~ Beautiful scenery ~ ones I only see on calendars! God bless the men who worked so hard to build these amazing railways ~ it's a work of art, that have endured the tests of time! Ty for sharing!❤
Absolutely beautiful and stunning Journey 😍 ❤️ ❤❤!!!!!!!!!!! I was absolutely gobsmacked by the stunning scenery, including the little towns and villages along the way. The church built in 1667 was quite something 😳. People built things to last a very long time back in the day. I'm looking forward to seeing the next video!!! 😊😊😊
I am so enjoying this trip to Norway. It’s almost as beautiful as Australia. Just loving it. Look forward to next video. Thanks so much for taking me along. Please take care
That waterfall would be amazing to see as it awakes. We have 3 rail trips in New Zealand which are stunning but way over the top in expensive. Thanks you for this ride it's been amazing. To think it was mainly explosive then pick and shovel. Extremely impressive. =-)
Ho avuto il piacere di fare il vostro stesso percorso in Agosto 2017 ....... Tutto bellissimo. Sono ritornati alla mente i ricordi.....Thank you ❤.I wait for the next video
Brilliant!! The both of you, do such a great job with your video's and information about all the places you travel! Fabulous! Love what you both do!! Great!! You do it all so Well....Thankyou!! Great fan from New Zealand 💖💥💖💥💖💥💖💥💖😂
Astounding views... the snow covered mountains views are so enchanting & breathtaking, I thank u for excellent narration.. everyone enjoys the railways transportation but how much hard work required, how workers risked and all about construction is quite interesting to know.. your videos are always the best 👌 each country has its own beauty & charm, which is so perfect to enjoy when the content is extraordinary & visualization is amazingly wonderful 👌👏👏
What a fantastic journey in the train 👍. When I was last year in Norway, we were supposed to go on a train ride (evening and night) to the Lofoten, but it got unfortunately cancelled and we had to fly instead, which was fine, but a train is a great experience through the beautiful landscape. Great video and very well presented. Top notch 🙏
Lovely start to my Sunday again. What a great looking train journey. The red buildings really stand out against the snow and frozen waterfalls look so strange but amazing. Thanks yet again, btw lovely background music at the end. Cheers Cheryl 🙂
I really enjoy your content, no yelling, no loud music, informative narrative, and I get to see and enjoy the scenery. We are planning our 2025 trip, so am using some of your Europe content to add to our plan. Thanks, keep up the great work. Kia ora from Aotearoa (New Zealand)
That was lovely, and bought back a memory from when my husband and I went, although no snow apart from the highest peaks the scenery was just as magnificent.x
This train is part of the "Norway in a Nutshell" excursion. We took that a few years ago and thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of all parts of the trip! Highly recommended!
Thanks for visiting my homeland of Norway. I just started following your channel, so this was funny to discover. You are welcome back anytime, especially to my home villige of Modalen (western Norway). Anyway, I enjoy following your channel :) I visit the UK all the time 😀
Thank you for the comment and joining us on our travels. We definitely will be back in Norway at some point. We loved it so much. Hopefully our travels around the UK will help you pick a new place to visit next time you go over!
In 2014 we took the Nutshell train from Oslo to Myrdal then the Flåm Railway Myrdal-Flåm. At Flåm we got on the ferry to Balestrand where we spent a few nights. Magical.
What a super trip found it most interesting, have never had a chance to go, so your train journey made it possible for me to appreciate the wonders there are out there, I have been wondering if you have ever been to Beamish the living museum in the north, the last time I visited was over 25 years ago, so it must have changed a lot since then, this is just a suggestion for your future trips, good luck to you both, and look forward to more adventures Thank you both.
Oh Beamish, is a wonderful place remember going on a school trip across Northumberland and that was one of the stops. We certainly have it on the list, one day we will get there!
Wow! What a ride! Thanks for all of the interesting facts about the train. Those tunnel walls got pretty close… better not hang that camera out too far! 😉 Cheers!
It's hard to think of words that haven't been expressed already. Such beautiful scenery...a winter wonder. As always, your photography and editing are terrific, and you do a great job of providing links and specific information about costs and logistics. Looking forward to next week!
Thank you very much, we were very lucky with the weather and some of shots we managed to get. Made it more interesting than just inside the carriage all the time.
Beautiful video but please take us back to continental Europe videos with sunny weather, historical buildings and no snow! Can you go to Italy, Spain, Mediterranean, etc? 😊
We will be back in England after next weeks end to this mini series, but the weather has not been good for sometime in the UK when we have been out filming so expect grey skies and rain. 🌦
Just awesome! I feel quite guilty never having visited... Doesn't look there were any amenities on the train? Glad you had a FAB time. Thanks for squeezing us in!!
Im really enjoying this fascinating journey with you to Norway, a place I dont think I will be able to visit so seeing it through your eyes is fantastic for me - thank you. Just curious how you prepare for the icy conditions ie footwear, clothing generally and how is the driving too - icy I imagine, were there lots of difficulites? Can you give us an insight into the prices of meals out etc, its interesting to compare. Many thanks again for a wonderful visit with you all today. xx
We have quite a few winter trips so over time you get all the footwear and winter jackets and thermals. It wasn’t that cold really -7 was the worst but it can be colder there. The cars have winter tyres so most of the time you feel like you are driving normally. We didn’t have any really bad roads apart from near our cabin and you just slow down and take it easy. We never felt it was dangerous or we couldn’t manage it. As an example a beer is about £10 a pint wine £25 a bottle and for something as simple as burger and fries in a restaurant it could be £30. So we mainly cooked for ourselves where possible or really picked a restaurant carefully and didn’t try and have anything fancy.
Hi Both, Thank you so much for taking the time to reply in such detail, I really appreciate your thoughtfulness and the information you shared. You have a great channel, I wish you every success. xx
Hi Simon and Will. I was just watching the newest video you put out this Easter weekend and realized I somehow missed this one. I was looking forward to it because I think the train is a great way to travel. Did a bit in Scotland and England. Only once in Canada where I live. The trip you took looked fantastic. I can’t imagine how jaw dropping going through the mountains would be. The first time I saw mountains was in Jasper, Alberta on a beautiful hot summers day when I was 14. All I could think of is that this is what it must feel like to stand next to God. I can’t imagine what these men endured setting down the rail lines. It must have been back breaking treacherous work and it’s good to be reminded of the sacrifices of those that came before us. Was curious if you found the 20 minute stop long enough before you had to head back on the train and how long was the trip in total to and from? Anyway it looked well worth it. Not many of us can say we’ve travelled the mountains by train. Thanks again. Your videos are always a treat. Take care ❤
Glad you found this one! It was a real highlight of the trip in Norway. There really isn't anything to do at Myrdal apart from change trains or wait to head back. 20 mins to take in the views from here was fine. In total our time on the railway was about 2 hours 30, but it just sailed by!
Hello, is the R45 train That leaves Myrdal the same train ( Flåmsbana) u showed in the video? We are going to visit Norway in May and are trying to book a one way trip from Myrdal to Flam but cant find That info anywhere. Should we book at norway Best or can we use the VY website? Also whats the Best side to sit on the train While going from Myrdal to Flam? Thank you for the vídeo, its amazing to see a glimpse of this views
Hello, There is only one train type that runs up and down the line from Myrdal to Flam and vice versa, Flamsbana. No other trains run on that branch line, so I would think the R45 is right but I cannot say for sure. When I did a quick Vy.no search for trains FROM Flam to Mydal is also mentions the R45 so maybe that is what VY.no refers to as the Flamsbana train in either direction? You can book combined tickets with VY.no as mentioned on this page www.norwaysbest.com/the-flam-railway/round-trip-with-the-flam-railway/ but I don't know if its cheaper or more expensive to book direct with bestofnorway. I think you would be wise to email best of norway and tell them where you are coming from (I assume Bergen) and they will tell you best options. They were are very helpful and quick to reply when we booked. For the views from Myrdal to Flam the left handside for probably 1/2 to 3/4's is best but it does switch around. Hopefully if you your train is not to busy you can switch or go stand by a door to get alterative views. Hope that helps in some way Have a great time!
Every time Simon says "fjord", I can't help but flash on the Monty Python "Dead Parrot" sketch where Michael Palin is trying to convince John Cleese that his Norwegian Blue parrot is not dead, but is "pining for the fjords".
As a Norwegian, I have visited. But please, before you go to Flåm, buy some food and drinks before arriving there. It's all tourist traps and the whole town feels fake. Norway is expensive, but not this expensive.
DONT, DONT, worry buddy, we got a nice DULL, shovel for you. NO EXPERIENCE required. You better get to work or you and your Chinese friends will freeze to death, like in the Rockies, shovel found frozen in their hands.
This train is part of the "Norway in a Nutshell" excursion. We took that a few years ago and thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of all parts of the trip! Highly recommended!

Yes we would like to head back in the summer.

Glad you enjoyed it, it was incredible and I am glad we got that across in a virtual way.
I am flamsbanagasted!
Дякую вам за подорож!
Сурова краса, інколи було страшно від висоти
Дуже радий, що вам сподобалось. Так, суворо і красиво водночас.

We have another trip across Norway next week, featuring a 7 hour train journey. I am sure you like this one as well. It does offer a great way for everyone in your party to see the scenery rather than one having to concentrate on driving.
This is, perhaps, the best made, most complete, and most visually stunning video about the Flåmsbana. Superbly done. More, please.
Thank you so much your comment means a lot. We put so much effort into making it 😊
Enjoyed. Blessings
😊
Gm ~ Beautiful scenery ~ ones I only see on calendars! God bless the men who worked so hard to build these amazing railways ~ it's a work of art, that have endured the tests of time! Ty for sharing!❤

Thank you Just wonderful.

Absolutely beautiful and stunning Journey 😍 ❤️ ❤❤!!!!!!!!!!! I was absolutely gobsmacked by the stunning scenery, including the little towns and villages along the way. The church built in 1667 was quite something 😳. People built things to last a very long time back in the day. I'm looking forward to seeing the next video!!! 😊😊😊
They certain did, we will be up close with the church in the next video. Sadly it wasn’t open to go inside 🥲
Can’t wait for the next one
I am so enjoying this trip to Norway. It’s almost as beautiful as Australia. Just loving it. Look forward to next video. Thanks so much for taking me along. Please take care
Thank you Linda, so glad you have been watching and enjoying the trip. It was quite wonderful.
That waterfall would be amazing to see as it awakes. We have 3 rail trips in New Zealand which are stunning but way over the top in expensive. Thanks you for this ride it's been amazing. To think it was mainly explosive then pick and shovel. Extremely impressive. =-)
Oh yes a combination of explosives and then clearing the rubble by hand for sure.
Ho avuto il piacere di fare il vostro stesso percorso in Agosto 2017 ....... Tutto bellissimo. Sono ritornati alla mente i ricordi.....Thank you ❤.I wait for the next video
Sono così felice di aver riportato alla mente i bei ricordi del tuo viaggio!
My family enjoyed your video so much.

What a shame you missed it. 😥
I also like the speed of the train it gave you a chance the see the beautiful mountain scenery and of the music and the comments .
Yes the train does meander along at a lovely pace to see the landscape. So glad you like it.
Absolutely stunning!!!
It really is!
I really enjoy your content, no yelling, no loud music, informative narrative, and I get to see and enjoy the scenery. We are planning our 2025 trip, so am using some of your Europe content to add to our plan. Thanks, keep up the great work. Kia ora from Aotearoa (New Zealand)

Glad you enjoyed it
Even visiting these places is difficult. Extreme weather. Seeing is a feast to our eyes.
I have to say that even with the snow and terrain, Norway is one of the easier places to visit they seem to be very well geared up for it.
Yay! A new "trip" for me to enjoy! 🥰... Y'all are my favorite armchair travel companions!
Ahh thank you so kind 😊
Wow
Fantastic railway journey well photographed as usual
Many thanks! 😊

What a super trip found it most interesting, have never had a chance to go, so your train journey made it possible for me to appreciate the wonders there are out there,

Wow! What a ride! Thanks for all of the interesting facts about the train. Those tunnel walls got pretty close… better not hang that camera out too far! 😉 Cheers!
Haha it looked closer than it was and you have to shut the windows in tunnels. So was struggling to do both!
In the summer you can see a surprise dance at Kjossfossen Waterfall representing the local tribe that lived there
Одним словом очень красивые пейзажи, круче гор только горы) 😊💪👍

Thanks 🎩👍🏻❤😍
You're welcome 😊
Very informative and an experienced video. It's like whatching National Geographic
😊 thank you 😊
Beautiful video but please take us back to continental Europe videos with sunny weather, historical buildings and no snow! Can you go to Italy, Spain, Mediterranean, etc? 😊
We will be back in England after next weeks end to this mini series, but the weather has not been good for sometime in the UK when we have been out filming so expect grey skies and rain. 🌦
Just awesome! I feel quite guilty never having visited... Doesn't look there were any amenities on the train? Glad you had a FAB time. Thanks for squeezing us in!!
Yes each carriage have a toilet but no other service as it’s just a 55 min ride so no buffet car. 😊
Im really enjoying this fascinating journey with you to Norway, a place I dont think I will be able to visit so seeing it through your eyes is fantastic for me - thank you.

Hi Simon and Will. I was just watching the newest video you put out this Easter weekend and realized I somehow missed this one. I was looking forward to it because I think the train is a great way to travel. Did a bit in Scotland and England. Only once in Canada where I live. The trip you took looked fantastic. I can’t imagine how jaw dropping going through the mountains would be. The first time I saw mountains was in Jasper, Alberta on a beautiful hot summers day when I was 14. All I could think of is that this is what it must feel like to stand next to God. I can’t imagine what these men endured setting down the rail lines. It must have been back breaking treacherous work and it’s good to be reminded of the sacrifices of those that came before us. Was curious if you found the 20 minute stop long enough before you had to head back on the train and how long was the trip in total to and from? Anyway it looked well worth it. Not many of us can say we’ve travelled the mountains by train. Thanks again. Your videos are always a treat. Take care ❤

Hello,
There is only one train type that runs up and down the line from Myrdal to Flam and vice versa, Flamsbana. No other trains run on that branch line, so I would think the R45 is right but I cannot say for sure. When I did a quick Vy.no search for trains FROM Flam to Mydal is also mentions the R45 so maybe that is what VY.no refers to as the Flamsbana train in either direction?
You can book combined tickets with VY.no as mentioned on this page www.norwaysbest.com/the-flam-railway/round-trip-with-the-flam-railway/ but I don't know if its cheaper or more expensive to book direct with bestofnorway. I think you would be wise to email best of norway and tell them where you are coming from (I assume Bergen) and they will tell you best options. They were are very helpful and quick to reply when we booked. For the views from Myrdal to Flam the left handside for probably 1/2 to 3/4's is best but it does switch around. Hopefully if you your train is not to busy you can switch or go stand by a door to get alterative views. Hope that helps in some way Have a great time!
Thank you so much, i'm binge watching your already published vídeos and waiting for the next ones. They are really informative and well structured
Amazing journey and beautiful train ..... My brother is in Oslo... Greetings from Indian railfan. Keep in touch always... Waiting for hearing from you
Thanks for watching
Beautifully done,as always. Thank you.
Thank you for watching 😊
Loved it
Every time Simon says "fjord", I can't help but flash on the Monty Python "Dead Parrot" sketch where Michael Palin is trying to convince John Cleese that his Norwegian Blue parrot is not dead, but is "pining for the fjords".
I can’t say I’ve seen it, will have to look it up 😊

Is there anything to visit in Myrdal or just a get-off-get-on stop?
I believe there are a few walking trails open in the summer only, but nothing else to see around the station.

As a Norwegian, I have visited. But please, before you go to Flåm, buy some food and drinks before arriving there. It's all tourist traps and the whole town feels fake. Norway is expensive, but not this expensive.
Do you know that the scenery like this usually attracts Chinese very much, our pressure seems heavier than whole world🤣
DONT, DONT, worry buddy, we got a nice DULL, shovel for you. NO EXPERIENCE required. You better get to work or you and your Chinese friends will freeze to death, like in the Rockies, shovel found frozen in their hands.
This train is part of the "Norway in a Nutshell" excursion. We took that a few years ago and thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of all parts of the trip! Highly recommended!
