  • The GoPro can capture great images, but it will never be able to show the the true to eye view due do the extreme wideangle/fisheye lense it uses. I've always wanted to show how everything truly looks from the cab and now I'm finally able to do that.
    Here is a true to eye view of the Flåm Railway going up to Myrdal. From sea level to 866m above. It's like going through three seasons in less than an hour.
    The video was recorded with a Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera with a Canon EF 1.4 lens @ F/4 ISO 1250 and 50fps.

    My sister (80) & I (70) loved this trip because it was at a speed where we could see the animals & scenery. You are so fortunate to be able to see this & enjoy the views. It seems your country takes more pride & care of their country & families seem closer. We don't see the trash & the rail lines & homes seem cleaner & well taken care of. We would love to see this in person, but our health does not allow much travel so love what we can see thru your videos.

    I visited Norway back in 1987, but we didn't make it to the interior. We'd been touring all over Sweden then drove from Gothenburg to Oslo, where I think we spent two nights and one full day, then drove to Bergen. That drive to Bergen along the coast was quite the adventure! After less than a full day in Bergen we had to head back home, unfortunately - Bergen - Stavanger - Copehagen - Los Angeles - Sacramento. I'd definitely like to get back to Norway some day - beautiful country.

    starting from Flam which is at a height of 2 m above sea, the train reached Berekvam in 16 minutes. it climbed 343 meters in this time. speed was slow, i think i saw a speed board of 36 kmph somewhere, but it all looks so effortless... :-)

    Mmmmm...so many lilacs blooming down in Flåm. Are you able to open the windows in the cab to catch the smell of the blooms?
    After being so used to the GoPro, it's something to see how abruptly the climb begins just after the raspberry farm. And I am adoring this new view!
    At Håreina, are the goats staying where they belong now? I stopped this video and totally distracted myself onto the goat video. Wow - look at all the tour buses in Flåm last autumn! What a difference even less than a year has made.

    • @mikegross6107
      @mikegross6107 4 роки тому

      I believe it's the wheels rubbing along the sides of the rails causing more friction than normal but I may be wrong.

    • @stevencooper2464
      @stevencooper2464 4 роки тому

      Actually, it's the wheel flanges "singing" as they rub the against the rails in curves. They usually don''t do that on straight track.

    Even more dramatic.
    I do have a few questions about the trackside signs:
    Is there a difference between the various horn signs?
    What are the smallish rectangular signs on this line (e.g. at 7:06) which just have a number usually 130 or 150?
    And finally one that's more evident on the mountain pass: Some of the speed signs have a speed in the triangle and the a small +5 or +10 below, and the limit shown in the videos is the sum, so what is the difference between (say) a 10 and a 9 +10?

    • @RailCowGirl
      @RailCowGirl  3 роки тому

      1. Curve diameter in meters :)
      2. allowed overspeed example 8 + 10 = 90kmh for rolling stock approved for overspeed
