Fantastic video, never seen anything like it. 😊 I appreciate that it's uploaded with no frills, just the lovely sounds of a machine and its dedicated operator. What a beautiful view of a beautiful country. Thank you, train lady!
As an older bloke may I say I love modern technology...Here I am thousands of kilometers away watching a cab view, clear as day of a fabulous trip through snow and stuff. Love it.
waiotahi52 I like in the US. I am a train operator in New York city. I see the same dirty tunnels day in and day out. I want a job there. I would never get tried of seeing what he see every day.
Watching a train heading through a snowy landscape for over 2 hours how unbearable boring could that be? NOT a moment! Never would’ve expected to be fascinated by this - I wish it would have 4 hours traveling time. What an awesome landscape in such incredible professional footage. Chapeau!
Wow I can't believe that there are people who have no snow ! Christmas eve last night we got @ 6 - 8 inches. Would you like me to send you some ? lol Well I hope some day you could see snow, go skiing, build a snow fort , have a snow ball fight, or even go sledding , snowboarding , good luck !!
True, if you want music - just put on whatever music you like)) But of course I also prefer just listening to those sounds, listening to music all the time gets annoying.
I served with people who never seen snow, i'm from the Great Lakes where "Lake Effect Snow" comes from. You get "White Outs" where you cant seen anything, every few years people get stranded on I79 as it can snow so fast, it stops you. I live in the south now, but watching this.... makes me miss home..
WOW that was amazing. I am a train driver in UK and the minute we get snow they virtually close the line. I would love to have a drive on such a train. Fantastic, thanks for posting
Construction of the line is a masterful piece of engineering. The cab ride a fantastic adventure. Easily the best cab ride that I have ever watched. Many thanks for posting.
@@alexcoltuneac because in england we have 2 days of snow a year the cost of preventing this costs way more than stopping services for a day alot of train tracks are jn flood plains which are risk at landslides and flooding
I enjoyed this so much I didn't want it to end. Towards the beginning when we first cannot see the tracks, it looked like the train was skiing. Loved it !!
That area at 14:30 is so beautiful I wish I had a house there, hearing the train passing by, snow storm closing in at my window in the night and getting warmer near the fire stove. Waking up in the morning, sipping on a hot coffee while preparing to go outside to shovel the snow around the house. Chopping firewood for the rest of the day.
I wonder how many who live there feel that way. Or is it, "There's that damn train again, always waking me up during a good sleep". "Geez, another snow storm. Ugh" Are we out of fire wood again, damn, another day cutting wood, AND i have to shovel that freaking snow" " I probably won't even have enough time to drink a cup of coffee after all of that" 😒😀
@@tigergreg8 I've lived like that back in my country, since I was about 15 years old I waw helping parents and older neighbors chop firewood and shovel the snow. Also carry fallen down wood from the nearby forest. I tell you sometime it did felt like a never ending chore but mostly it felt right, I don't know how to put it, but everything else after a hard day of working the warmth of the stove and home cooked food felt so rewarding you would do everything again just for that moment. But hey, some people are different, this is how I see it and now I wish I was back in those days forever, in a village far from the busy city life.
@@AfterTanks Actually, I can understand how you felt that warmth and camaraderie after a days work and a home cooked meal. Sitting by a warm fire and chatting sounds really quaint to me. I'm not a winter person, though I live on the upper East Coast of the US where we have it. I do enjoy the warmer months and enjoy mowing and trimming the trees and anything else that needs done, and then relaxing in the evening after a hard days work and enjoying how beautiful it looks. I live near a large City, but our family has a getaway home on 55 acres in the country, so my weekends are spent in the country and not here near the City. I have the best of both Worlds now. I do remember going to someones camp in the mountains in the wintertime, and coming in to a fire and sitting on a large wooden rocking chair. The memory of that time is very sweet, so I can somewhat relate to what you yearn for from those days. I will tell you as I've told many people who have great memories. Always always be grateful you had the opportunity to experience those beautiful thought and experiences. Not everyone has those kind of memories and would yearn to have them. so, you are fortunate. Plus, many say they wish for the good ol days, yet, they don't realize that at this very moment, and even for yourself, you may be living in the good ol days, because you may look back and think about the times you are experiencing right now. 👍
I've seen many beautiful things in my life, this sight just takes the cake... with a cup of coffee in hand, soft music in the background, so relaxing, it shows how wonderful this life can be, the progress of humanity, the beauty of nature, a bit scary at times but just stupendous and spectacular, a true treat for the soul, so grateful for this post. Thank you!!!
Claudio Fornaro Takes the Cake is it a chocolate cake that it takes how far does the cake go when it's taken and can we ever take another cake after you take one cake may we take numerous cakes?

Thank you for those videos. It really helps me relax, and I just love the beautiful view and smooth ride! I love the quality and perfection of your videos! ❤💋
A very hypnotic video indeed. I love how you start from the lower lying area where it looks to be raining to higher up in the hills/mountains where the snow is covering the rails.
Quite a few of them actually died in work related accidents. These were difficult terrains to build in, and this was a long time before the modern day safety requirements of Scandinavia, so the death toll was quite dreadful.
No, they were actually quite well paid. They were usually strong, hard-working, young men from poor rural communities looking for an opportunity to earn good money and get a new life. Their working conditions were awful, so was their living quarters. But it was a respectable job.
Je découvre fin novembre 2021 immobilisée au milieu de la France depuis 18 mois. Quel voyage quel dépaysement quel mouvement !! Fascinant captivant. Magnifiquement poétique sur un écran ! Merci.
I love how Norwegian trains just keep on going even in snow drifts, here in the UK a heavy frost and the train service in thrown into complete disarray, with cancellations delays and breakdowns. Well done Norway.
I've gotten the impression that Brits are in a sort of denial about winter. Although winters are generally less severe in the UK than in the Norwegian highlands, snowfall and freezing temperatures are hardly unheard of. Yet UK architecture and infrastructure have a reputation for beeing unprepared for winter. I guess they kept a stiff, albeit shivering upper lip, and muddled through. In Norway, the stubbornly unprepared were likely to die off.
I've never that beauty of nature. I've naver been to Norway too. Thank you for this video. This help me to watch this beautiful view of there. Thanks a lot
Thanks for these videos. I'm from India and in my city, the temperature always stays around 24C - 28C. In summer (February to May), it might go upto 35C in a sunny day and in 'extreme' winter (December and January), it might go down to 18C at night. I never seen snow in real life. Norway is beautiful. I really want to visit someday..
Hei da det er Christopher Ellertson her. Jeg hadt bore i Norge pa utveksling i1995 og ri pa togger masse men onske for det ijen. Tusen takk fra Kanada!!!
This is the 3rd time watching this one for me, it’s great for insomnia, it’s so relaxing & enjoyable & I find it impossible to think of anything else while watching. Thank you.
I don't know about others but I watch these in bed. And I breath like I'm in meditation. I find it really good to sleep. It's like I visualise I'm in a journey closing my eyes. Love train journeys keep posting more. I love the Vikings and Norway so. Thanks for your help
WOW! This was truly amazing, watched the entire journey in one hit! I have never seen snow in person, it looks so beautiful and the scenery, simply amazing. Love the little houses here and there & I imagine the the people inside, reading a book or just looking out the windows with a cosy fire burning. Would love to live somewhere like that, it looks peaceful. Thank you for posting! 🤗🤗
I grew up in a small town and I loved the sound of the train that went through it. I discovered your channel Thanksgiving night. A perfect ending to the day.
Thanx for amazing upload. I just finished a 2 hour long walk on my walking machine in 34C heat. This video didn’t only keep me cool, but also put me in trance, so I walked and walked with no concept of time. I have never walked this long time. Not only was it good physically, but my mind got it’s fair share of wellbeing as well. Wow, I feel good now, relaxing with an ice cold beer😎. Important to rehydrate 😁 This kind of vids will be my partner on my walking sessions. I can recommend this.
Captivating. Hypnotic! When I read "Stormy" conditions, I first expected some snow : many youtubers use exaggerated terms to clickbait us. And when I saw the beginning, I thought "He calls a few snowflakes a storm?". But when the train gets to the summit of the pass, I admit it is quite a storm. The real thing! Thanks for no comment, no music, no special effects... You just put us there. And that is exactly a "Trains Driver's View". Could hardly do any better!
Over 5.5 years since I first saw this video and it still thrills me to go from some rain in Bergen to a guy shovelling snow off the front of the loco. Stunning.
Hi, A week ago we went through Hurricane Michael in the Florida Panhandle and had massive damage and destruction on our farm, but that was like a walk in the park in the summer compared to this Norway train ride. This was scary. Norwegians, must be amazing builders and totally fearless.
Back in the 1800s(*), and the early 1900s, yes. Less so today(**), with modern comforts. *) In the 1800s, Norwegian fishing was largely done by rowing boats, sometimes in weather as hostile as this train ride; except high waves in stead of tracks, and sometimes in the dark. Workplace fatalities were more frequent back then. **) Am Norwegian, and couch potato.
Breath taking...like watching peaceful mono color film. I walked by Bergen station in late Jan. 2017, sadly I didn't have the time to ride the rail. And in January, there was no snow.. i remember it started to snow after my departure. I have to see the snow in Bergen.... well, snow maybe a common and somewhat annoying sight for those who accustomed to it. For someone who has never seen snow in his life, it remained uncrossed out in his bucket list.
just watching the line. the thought of charging along and get total blinded by a snow drift. plunging into a black tunnel before the screen has cleared. then the snow covering the head lights. something you must get used to. sitting watching a screen in a warm house with no respectability is easy . Having the controls in your hand and a long train full of people is defiantly different. Doing this in a whiteout is different, demanding and tough. Doing the same at night when many of the location markers disappear must be a thing where training and experience is paramount. Thanks for doing this as It is so good. Amacf
Really cool, love the scenery. It's somewhat hypnotic and put me to sleep once - not because it's boring, though. The speed that the train goes through the curves in the climb up to the highlands is remarkable. I've seen a lot of people who would be going slower than that in a car on a road that twisty. In the snow, definitely. Cool video!
If cars ran on rails they could go faster ;-)) an idea for the future perhaps for electric cars, no electronics needed, buffers front and back, a bit like inline dodgem cars, what fun !! How would you exit the line??
My favorite video to sit and relax to. I watch it often. Also I can't help but notice all the houses and cabins off in the distances. What is it like to live like that so far out there, i wish I could live in seclusion like that. Beautiful.
+Pete Rice Norwegians love their cabins :) Finse which is the highest situated station on the bergen line is 4009ft (1222m) above sea level. This used to be a very active community. It was a way of life. Now Finse attracts people who wants survival training, skiers and kiters. The winters there can be very treacherous.
Thank you for the information. I was wondering what people did there, especially in the winter. Even in the summer it seems pretty bleak. Love your videos...you make an effort to provide us with tidbits such as elevation, signage meanings, etc.
Wonderful channel. When I'm tired in the evening, after dinner, I sit down in my couch, put on one of your videos, enjoy the landscapes and the humming of the engine. And then at some point I doze off peacefully with my cat on my lap.

A total of 2400 navvies, 800 at any given time, worked from 1884-1909. 12-hour shifts. Using picks, shovels and wheelbarrows.
Quite a few of them actually died in work related accidents. These were difficult terrains to build in, and this was a long time before the modern day safety requirements of Scandinavia, so the death toll was quite dreadful.
@@Steff2929again Were the Navvies the slave class of the time?
No, they were actually quite well paid. They were usually strong, hard-working, young men from poor rural communities looking for an opportunity to earn good money and get a new life. Their working conditions were awful, so was their living quarters. But it was a respectable job.
Je découvre fin novembre 2021 immobilisée au milieu de la France depuis 18 mois. Quel voyage quel dépaysement quel mouvement !! Fascinant captivant. Magnifiquement poétique sur un écran ! Merci.
Thank you!
I love how Norwegian trains just keep on going even in snow drifts, here in the UK a heavy frost and the train service in thrown into complete disarray, with cancellations delays and breakdowns. Well done Norway.
I've gotten the impression that Brits are in a sort of denial about winter. Although winters are generally less severe in the UK than in the Norwegian highlands, snowfall and freezing temperatures are hardly unheard of. Yet UK architecture and infrastructure have a reputation for beeing unprepared for winter.
I guess they kept a stiff, albeit shivering upper lip, and muddled through. In Norway, the stubbornly unprepared were likely to die off.
I've never that beauty of nature. I've naver been to Norway too. Thank you for this video. This help me to watch this beautiful view of there. Thanks a lot
Werte Dame! Ich liebe Ihre Filme und möchte mich für Ihre Arbeit herzlich bedanken :-))) Beste Grüße
aus Österreich!
Thanks for these videos. I'm from India and in my city, the temperature always stays around 24C - 28C. In summer (February to May), it might go upto 35C in a sunny day and in 'extreme' winter (December and January), it might go down to 18C at night. I never seen snow in real life. Norway is beautiful. I really want to visit someday..
Fantastic,love the way the train goes over the snow and no railway lines seen..
we enjoyed this wonderful journey in norway . takk skal du ha .
Glad you enjoyed it, tusen takk!
Hei da det er Christopher Ellertson her. Jeg hadt bore i Norge pa utveksling i1995 og ri pa togger masse men onske for det ijen. Tusen takk fra Kanada!!!
Magical! I love it when you can't see the tracks at all and all the snow flies up the window.
The best Channel I found for a long time. Thank you for that!
Glad you enjoy it!
Amazing how the weather and landscape changes so much in less than 10 minutes.....
I wished people would put more of this type of video's out there. I really enjoyed this. Thank you. I watched all I had time to.
This is the 3rd time watching this one for me, it’s great for insomnia, it’s so relaxing & enjoyable & I find it impossible to think of anything else while watching. Thank you.
This feels surprisingly freeing. The speed in such conditions is amazing
Thank you for watching!
Fantastic cab ride, thanks for uploading.
That was a train, not a cab. A cab ride would be filled with crappy islamic tunes and you could smell the stink thru the video.
I don't know about others but I watch these in bed. And I breath like I'm in meditation. I find it really good to sleep. It's like I visualise I'm in a journey closing my eyes. Love train journeys keep posting more. I love the Vikings and Norway so. Thanks for your help
Glad you enjoy it! Thanks for watching!
WOW! This was truly amazing, watched the entire journey in one hit! I have never seen snow in person, it looks so beautiful and the scenery, simply amazing. Love the little houses here and there & I imagine the the people inside, reading a book or just looking out the windows with a cosy fire burning. Would love to live somewhere like that, it looks peaceful.
Thank you for posting! 🤗🤗
Truly peaceful, apart from the donkeys, I mean train horns. Lol
So many tunnels! And, in the snowy scenes, so stark white - it looked mystical. This was cool to watch - thanks for filming it.
Glad you enjoyed it
I grew up in a small town and I loved the sound of the train that went through it. I discovered your channel Thanksgiving night. A perfect ending to the day.
Awesome! Thank you!
Thanx for amazing upload.
I just finished a 2 hour long walk on my walking machine in 34C heat. This video didn’t only keep me cool, but also put me in trance, so I walked and walked with no concept of time. I have never walked this long time. Not only was it good physically, but my mind got it’s fair share of wellbeing as well.
Wow, I feel good now, relaxing with an ice cold beer😎. Important to rehydrate 😁
This kind of vids will be my partner on my walking sessions. I can recommend this.
WOW! You go, Chuck! So glad my video is so captivating! ❤️
Captivating. Hypnotic!
When I read "Stormy" conditions, I first expected some snow : many youtubers use exaggerated terms to clickbait us. And when I saw the beginning, I thought "He calls a few snowflakes a storm?". But when the train gets to the summit of the pass, I admit it is quite a storm. The real thing!
Thanks for no comment, no music, no special effects... You just put us there. And that is exactly a "Trains Driver's View".
Could hardly do any better!
+Tahititoutou ❤️ keeping it as real as possible :)
Oops... :( I didn't check... You're 105% right!
Well... it suggests it is a woman. I am not sure that Hindu Cowgirls are engineers... LOL!
She is ;)
Wel... if YOU (of all persons) say so... Then I can't argue! LOL!!!
¡QUE PERICIA DEL MAQUINISTA!, IBA DE MEMORIA YA QUE LAS LINEAS NO SE VEN EN MUCHOS TRAMOS, Y ESE BELLO SOL, TAN GRANDE.... ME ENCANTO TODO, ¡GRACIAS!.
In the UK, a few snowflakes brings the whole network to a halt, as does rain, wind, sun, leaves...
same in germany
No it doesn't. Stop exaggerating
lol facts
In the UK almost anything stops the trains. Snow, rain, slugs, lunar phases, unexploded farts...
burps, barfs ...
Never saw train journey from this vantage point. Many thanks!!
Surreal; I cannot stop watching...from Brooklyn NYC USA...thank you...
Wonderful images!
So cold everything goes to Black & White
Thank you for showing us your world!
B-)
Reaches my lost emotions. ..a breathtaking video, thank you.
Just MAGIC! once again very good therapy for this old Retired Train Driver. Thankyou.
Thank you, glad you like it!
The wheel slip we hear, sounds like it makes the journey of these sections fun.
The literal Snowpiercer! 😂
Fascinating video, beautiful country.
Greetings from England! 🏴😊✌🏼
Thanks a lot, glad you enjoyed it :)
Over 5.5 years since I first saw this video and it still thrills me to go from some rain in Bergen to a guy shovelling snow off the front of the loco. Stunning.
Hehe, glad you enjoy it :) Thanks!
Hi, A week ago we went through Hurricane Michael in the Florida Panhandle and had massive damage and destruction on our farm, but that was like a walk in the park in the summer compared to this Norway train ride. This was scary. Norwegians, must be amazing builders and totally fearless.
Back in the 1800s(*), and the early 1900s, yes. Less so today(**), with modern comforts.
*) In the 1800s, Norwegian fishing was largely done by rowing boats, sometimes in weather as hostile as this train ride; except high waves in stead of tracks, and sometimes in the dark. Workplace fatalities were more frequent back then.
**) Am Norwegian, and couch potato.
Wow, I got to admit, that even though the tracks weren't visible, you were still going at a good clip. I'm glad you were safe during the entire trip.
Thanks!
Breath taking...like watching peaceful mono color film.
I walked by Bergen station in late Jan. 2017, sadly I didn't have the time to ride the rail.
And in January, there was no snow.. i remember it started to snow after my departure.
I have to see the snow in Bergen....
well, snow maybe a common and somewhat annoying sight for those who accustomed to it.
For someone who has never seen snow in his life, it remained uncrossed out in his bucket list.
just watching the line. the thought of charging along and get total blinded by a snow drift. plunging into a black tunnel before the screen has cleared. then the snow covering the head lights. something you must get used to. sitting watching a screen in a warm house with no respectability is easy . Having the controls in your hand and a long train full of people is defiantly different.
Doing this in a whiteout is different, demanding and tough. Doing the same at night when many of the location markers disappear must be a thing where training and experience is paramount.
Thanks for doing this as It is so good. Amacf
Tracks? Where we're going, we don't need tracks.
Can still see the cantenary lines
its ski train
I like the reference
sure they'll be there as always
Those go into the light moments coming out of the tunnels are something else.
I just genuinly love Norway (And trains)
Really cool, love the scenery. It's somewhat hypnotic and put me to sleep once - not because it's boring, though.
The speed that the train goes through the curves in the climb up to the highlands is remarkable. I've seen a lot of people who would be going slower than that in a car on a road that twisty. In the snow, definitely. Cool video!
If cars ran on rails they could go faster ;-)) an idea for the future perhaps for electric cars, no electronics needed, buffers front and back, a bit like inline dodgem cars, what fun !! How would you exit the line??
I never tire of this video. I am amazed that you didn't slide off rails when you were in deep snow and little visibility.
Thank you!
Whew, breathtaking!
Great video and thank you for uploading in the original format...no music and all that other nonsense.
Best train route so far. What a ride..thanks to all humans who involve in initiating the train route.awesome. bravo.tq for the video too.
My favorite video to sit and relax to. I watch it often. Also I can't help but notice all the houses and cabins off in the distances. What is it like to live like that so far out there, i wish I could live in seclusion like that. Beautiful.
+Pete Rice Norwegians love their cabins :) Finse which is the highest situated station on the bergen line is 4009ft (1222m) above sea level. This used to be a very active community. It was a way of life. Now Finse attracts people who wants survival training, skiers and kiters. The winters there can be very treacherous.
Thank you for the information. I was wondering what people did there, especially in the winter. Even in the summer it seems pretty bleak. Love your videos...you make an effort to provide us with tidbits such as elevation, signage meanings, etc.
Try it.
Good taste.
If you live in america then move to alaska. No need to add more non norwegians to their country
I am putting a shortcut to this video on my desktop! I love that there is no music. Thanks
Wonderful channel. When I'm tired in the evening, after dinner, I sit down in my couch, put on one of your videos, enjoy the landscapes and the humming of the engine. And then at some point I doze off peacefully with my cat on my lap.
I love how the snow gets deeper with higher elevation , great lesson here in meteorology and geography, many thanks, subbed !
I have been watching so many of the Norway runs that I am starting to become as familiar with the topography as a native Norwegian.
