One of the best-produced train videos ever! I traveled on this line a as a passenger, though obviously not the freight sections which were very interesting. I especially appreciated the speed and location notes. Looking forward to viewing more of your videos!
That was very enjoyable to watch. Interesting to go on lines we haven't seen before. The quality of the filming is so good at 4K. I can understand why it took so long to edit and render. Thanks for taking the time and care to do so good a job (including driving of course)
I discovered your channel during covid lockdown & live them. I have them on while working on my laptop. Makes me feel like im on the train going somewhere & when they’re done. Its my signal for a break.
Proper slow TV, love it. Thank you! And thank you for the care, you put into your videos. There aren't many days when I don't watch one. I find them incredibly therapuetic...
I discovered your channel a little over a week ago. I am recovering from surgery and this is the most pleasant way I can imagine spending my convalescence. I’ve learned that Norway is a beautiful country and that I should have been a train driver! Well, I’m retired now so it is too late now! Thank you for the marvelous education and entertainment. Stay safe.
Hey there Katie, I hope your surgery was a success and that you recovery goes well. I'm glad my videos is makes this phase much easier. Stay tuned for more videos in the near future :D
OMG RCG, this is the best Winter Wonderland ever ! I like the horn on this engine, and I like seeing "passing time" instead of "arrival/departure" time ! hehhehheh. More please ! Love this 4K viewing too !
Wow, available at 4 K. Got a couple of stills at that level, with my net access can only view at 720. Absolutely spectacular. Thank you for the huge amount of superb work.
My sister & I live in the state of Georgia USA & have become addicted to your videos. Both of us are older & can't get out to travel much & your video gives us a way to see something we would ever get the chance to see otherwise. Your videos are great & so appreciated by us old folks! Thank you!
I agree this channel has one of the best railcam videos. I am a fan of rail vids and have seen and do see a lot of them but this is one of the best. The added comments make it more interesting. A request: If possible please add the tunnel names and length to make it more interesting.Thank you for these great videos.
Wohoo! It's finally friday, I found the LAST 6-pack of christmas beer in the store on my way home from work, and now I'm just going to relax, drink beer and watch this in ONE go. Have a great weekend! :D
Thank you so much RCG!! I spent most of last year riding with you as I did my rehab exercises post-hand surgery. Surprised at how quiet your freight engine cab is; thought it would be clattery and gasp-y (like some of your older passenger engines). The ride "feels" much heavier, more ponderous--more weight to start and stop, I guess. Thanks for coming back and for your hard work putting it all together!
So happy to ride with you again RCG! My first trip since we aren't moving passengers. This is different, but the same, with notable exceptions. I am enjoying the difference, and I hope you are too! The video @ 4K is great, and I appreciate the professional editing you bring to this pleasant trip. Thanks for the happy times!
Beautiful, new lines for me. I love the night videos with the lights up on the hills. I love the daytime videos too, almost like 2 different worlds. Thanks for a great show!
Absolutely love these videos. They’re so calming and relaxing. They really help to de-stress and relax. They also help me fall asleep. Thank you for making these videos, I don’t think I can tell you how much they help in getting rid of my stress.
Many thanks, D, for another winner of a video! I enjoyed the 'railway humour' where you used a traditional term, 'CONN-troller' coupled with the relatively new use of the word 'Troll'!! All of your captions make the journey more interesting and out-of-way happenings better understood. Congratulations on successful move from passenger to freight driving. Regard, Martin
I've had a quick look on the computer and It does look really interesting, I'm saving it for the weekend when I have more time and can see it on a big screen, looking forward to it. Well done RCG must have been hard work. Thank you much.
I have to say it yet again … this was one lovely train cab video … loved the notes you put in to explain things to us … you talked gradient, momentum, sharing a track with the local train, etc.. Loved your notes to point out the “forever pile” and the train spotter. … you were talking to us and that was much appreciated.
Wow, this is just a plain new lovely video. Starting off with the Sun at your back and a frosted landscape headed into a Nordic night … You could not have a more beautiful, cozy, dreamy setting. Getting better all the time. A video to dream with!
As with all your videos RCG, it was a pleasure to ride along with you. Love this route. Very enjoyable, with the new site's and especially going through the rail yards. Fun to watch with all the switching being done. Thanks RCG.
Just finished the whole video (over 4 days ) . I’ve cycled on my racing bike ( fixed back wheel ) with you for the 4.5 hours. Very enjoyable, changing resistance and speed to try and match your changing speeds relatively speaking of course. Sprints between say 4 or 5 electric catenaries is good. Thanks for posting these lovely videos !!!
I enjoyed watching your videos when I lived in the States, now that I live here in Norway it's a little surreal seeing the stations I regularly use from your perspective!
Yet another fabulous video. The scenery in Norway is just flat-out and outright gorgeous and beautiful and everything else that goes with it. Well done RailCowGirl! 😊😊😊
I'm not sure if it's a requirement but it's very kind, thoughtful, and courteous of you to dim your headlights when encountering vehicular traffic on the highway.
Thanks so much for another exciting video, RailCowGirl. Have you grown to hate flashing orange signals yet? The nice thing about delayed freight is it doesn’t bitch and moan about missing another connection on another train, bus or whatever. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and hope 2022 brings you lots of happiness and joy!
When I first seen these train videos I was watching a chris rea video "looking for the summer" great video anyways I started watching more next thing I know I'm hooked to see the majestic mountains and beautiful rivers its definitely on my bucket list.
Thanks to your videos, I know this route very well. But to make a trip by freight train is an incredible feeling and experience! Oslo looks especially beautiful at night! Good trip and as always in excellent quality!
Casting this magnificent brand new video to my 4K TV to enjoy while practicing piano in the warmth and comfort of my living room! Thank you so much RailCowGirl for all of the many, many hours of hard work that went into this soon-to-be breathtaking Train Ride! Going to support your video now by donating through SuperChat on your Live Channel; Thank You again! 🚂
I enjoyed this video more than your passenger train videos. I loved the different stops, routes and rules that you must abide by now. The slower speeds I tend to see better views of scenery along the routes. Please keep going with your videos of the beautiful scenery of Norway.
I noticed Christmas trees on this new video so you obviously worked very hard to get this one out in the time you did.This is a great addition to your catalogue and I thank you whole heartedly.P.S. nice work on NG by the way.
One day I may visit your beautiful country - in the mean time, I will travel the tracks with you. It's amazing, especially since here in Australia it is Summer and 36C to 40C daily right now.
Got a message from the traffic controller that the level crossing had been in the locked position for past hour :p so sounded the horn and moved slow in case some one just walked around the gates
I have been watching these videos with my partner in the evenings. They are mesmerizing. The country is so beautiful I want to retire there. But have you looked at the roads in the mountainous regions? Terrifying! And I'm no stranger to winter diving. Best to take the train.....
love your videos rail cow girl. wish i could meet you and talk about railroads with you for hours. i love to learn about other countries and how they do things. god bless you.
We have high noise requirements. Since the health requirements for hearing are high. The requirements to make sure hearing loss due to noise won’t put out of a job is high as well.
Wicked! :D I'll make sure you know when I'm going to pass next time :D Same With ItsBurn :D we'll be meeting up with him if he's at work at Alnabru next time I'm there :D
After digging back thru the community tab I found my answer. Water tower for back in the steam Era. Our old water towers look much different here in the Pacific Northwest.
Thanks for an interesting trip, well explained along the way. How do you disconnect from the train at the terminal? Can you disconnect and set the brakes on the train from the cab without someone on the ground?
Bello il video.....e se fosse possibile aggiungervi altri dati in più (lunghezza del treno e relativo peso dellonstesso) sarebbe perfetto....se poi si potesse avere un'idea di dove vanno e cosa sono i treni che si incrociano...ancora meglio! Grazie.....
So great! There were rather few freight cab ride videos from norway before you started. Thank you very much. Who knows. Perhaps we will see other routes from you in the future. 😉 But I have a question related to your time as a train driver for passenger services. There are yellow stopping signs with numbers like 110 or 220. I guess it's meter. But what if the train is longer than 110 but shorter than 220 m? Platform 1 at Asker for example. It is also a stop for Sørtoget. If the train is Loco-Hauled (EL18), there are not more than 5 Wagons with it. That's not 220 meters right? But longer than 110 m. But: When watching your videos, I can only make out the 110, 220 and 350 sign on platform 1 at Asker Station. Thank you very much. Keep up the great work. 🙂
110 and 220 markers are mainly used by EMU’s they indicate where a train with a given length should stop. For loco + carriages you stop where fit. So let’s say you have a 150m long train then you pass the 110 mark and stop 40m later. Nothing more to it than that. And yes, other lines will come too as I go by them ;)
The speciality train vehicle at 3:03 in appears to be an older infrastructure maintenance vehicle, if you could, if you know, please confirm. Thank you.
A fascinating journey and illustrates well the need for route knowledge as when you were maintaining momentum to climb out of Oslo S. What is the meaning of the sign which is a black circle on a yellow diamond ? Thanks for posting.
Not sure if you know or care to comment, at the 48 minute mark there are a lot of trees that have been snapped off nearly at their bases. Some could be logging but does not seem uniform enough to be so. What kind of wind storm did this area see that caused this as that is what it looks like? Any suggestions? Some trees are lined up at the tracks, others are scattered in the woods. Does not seem to be something caused by people, too random.
It was a severe storm with 160km/h winds that hit the area in November. Lots of trees snapped like twigs because never grew resilient for something that has never happened before. The line was closed for a days due to the amount of trees over the line and torn down catenary. Check out the catenary mast just before Bergheim, and the check with previous videos of the same place, and you'll see how many trees that is now gone.
@@RailCowGirl Yikes, that's almost 100 miles per hour! No wonders. I bet a bunch of older buildings went down also. Sorry for such a mess to clean up & disrupting transportation. Ughhh
Proper slow TV, love it. Thank you! And thank you for the care, you put into your videos. There aren't many days when I don't watch one. I find them incredibly therapuetic...
@@richardscathouse I do too! And then get rudely awakened when she has to signal a warning horn! 😀 I’m getting pretty good at figuring out a volume just loud enough to hear the engines, yet quiet enough to sleep through the warning horns. This is better than meditation!
@@RailCowGirl Ha ha! If others would like this, then I say go for it. Personally, when I’m not trying to sleep, and I see the diagonal sign, I always honk the horn with you. But I’m not sure where your horn is located. Do you pull a string from the rood like truck drivers use? Or do you have a button on your console? These are the questions that keep me up at night. 😉

Hi from snowy Ohio USA! I love your videos. I watch them while I walk on my treadmill. I walk a 5k takes me about an hour.
Just loved it, I wake up early in the morning and watch your video and sip coffee. Good job.
That sounds great! Thank you so much!
Amazing ride. I was happy to see new tracks and depots. I love it when there are many tracks intersecting with each other.

Thank you what a ride! My grandpas and uncles were engineers, I understand the thrill!
Thank you for watching :D Ah, where did they work? :D
Lovely to see a new route. Enjoyed every minute.
Always a pleasure having you passing through my town, Drammen, choo-choo away :-)
Whoop whoop! :D
living in the tropics I can intellectually understand short winter days and long winter nights, but seeing this night sky at 5pm really hits home.
I have to say it yet again … this was one lovely train cab video … loved the notes you put in to explain things to us … you talked gradient, momentum, sharing a track with the local train, etc.. Loved your notes to point out the “forever pile” and the train spotter. … you were talking to us and that was much appreciated.
Top notch video RCG🤗 It amazes me how the drive wheels get enough traction to get going from a standing start with such a load to pull!
The magic is a combination of traction weight slack in in couplings and how the weight pulls the loco down on the track
Wow, this is just a plain new lovely video. Starting off with the Sun at your back and a frosted landscape headed into a Nordic night … You could not have a more beautiful, cozy, dreamy setting. Getting better all the time. A video to dream with!
Just today discovered this great channel and just subscribed. I’ve always known trains are cool , and these certainly are.

Ha, ha, that mound is the definition of inertia. An object at rest... 🙂
Locomotives appear to have cabs on both ends. A walk thru the locomotive from one cab to he other would be quite interesting
Lovely watching that. Thanks 😉
What was all the honking for, just before the crossing at 1.38/00? - - Lovely scenery - even in the dark! :-)
Got a message from the traffic controller that the level crossing had been in the locked position for past hour :p so sounded the horn and moved slow in case some one just walked around the gates

Thank you so much!
I ❤️ your videos! 👏👍🤗
Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Having watched multiple rail channels, I'm convinced Norway has the quietest trains in the world -- at least from inside the locomotive cabin.
We have high noise requirements. Since the health requirements for hearing are high. The requirements to make sure hearing loss due to noise won’t put out of a job is high as well.
Yay! the video where I was scared by the honk at Drammen :D
You were AWESOME for coming out! ❤️

So great! There were rather few freight cab ride videos from norway before you started. Thank you very much. Who knows.

There are yellow stopping signs with numbers like 110 or 220. I guess it's meter. But what if the train is longer than 110 but shorter than 220 m? Platform 1 at Asker for example.

110 and 220 markers are mainly used by EMU’s they indicate where a train with a given length should stop.
For loco + carriages you stop where fit. So let’s say you have a 150m long train then you pass the 110 mark and stop 40m later. Nothing more to it than that.
And yes, other lines will come too as I go by them ;)
Amazing, fascinating!
Glad you think so!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! 💋
Thank you so much!
The speciality train vehicle at 3:03 in appears to be an older infrastructure maintenance vehicle, if you could, if you know, please confirm. Thank you.
It is a Robel maintenance vehicle, but this one is not that old. Thanks for watching.
A fascinating journey and illustrates well the need for route knowledge as when you were maintaining momentum to climb out of Oslo S. What is the meaning of the sign which is a black circle on a yellow diamond ?
Thanks for posting.
What was going on there at 1:37:45? You sounded the horn much longer and many more times than normal. You also slowed considerably.
I was notified that the gates had been locked in the down position for nearly two hours. So taking it easy just in case someone would go around them
it is crazy how fast you get the green signal after the other train passes . it takes minutes for that to happen on our railroad
Because I edited away 20 minutes? :)
Love this video👏❤️
Thank you so much!

Some trees are lined up at the tracks, others are scattered in the woods. Does not seem to be something caused by people, too random.
My guess is logging but I'm not 100% sure. Look at 47:00 on for a while on the left. Some areas appear to be clear cut.
Oh, read a few more comments ahead. She comments on it. Yes it was indeed a storm.
It was a severe storm with 160km/h winds that hit the area in November. Lots of trees snapped like twigs because never grew resilient for something that has never happened before. The line was closed for a days due to the amount of trees over the line and torn down catenary.

@@RailCowGirl Yikes, that's almost 100 miles per hour! No wonders. I bet a bunch of older buildings went down also. Sorry for such a mess to clean up & disrupting transportation. Ughhh
Proper slow TV, love it. Thank you! And thank you for the care, you put into your videos. There aren't many days when I don't watch one. I find them incredibly therapuetic...
Glad you enjoy it! ❤️
I love to fall asleep to the electric motors.
@@richardscathouse I do too! And then get rudely awakened when she has to signal a warning horn! 😀 I’m getting pretty good at figuring out a volume just loud enough to hear the engines, yet quiet enough to sleep through the warning horns. This is better than meditation!
hmmm maybe I'll make some compilations lasting an hour, clipping out the horn sound :D
@@RailCowGirl Ha ha! If others would like this, then I say go for it. Personally, when I’m not trying to sleep, and I see the diagonal sign, I always honk the horn with you. But I’m not sure where your horn is located. Do you pull a string from the rood like truck drivers use? Or do you have a button on your console? These are the questions that keep me up at night. 😉
Love these videos. We pretend to be on the trains for the spectacular views.
Glad you like them! ❤️
