You will see the Flam Train and then later on a red train that goes to Bergen. This video was taken in late May of 2015. You can see the stairs that lead to the Kaldavasshytta and Myrdal fjellstove (hotel accommodation).

Myrdal Railway Station ,Norway

he Flåm Line (Norwegian: Flåmsbana) is a 20.2-kilometer (12.6 mi) long railway line between Myrdal and Flåm in Aurland, Norway. A branch line of the Bergen Line, it runs through the valley of Flåmsdalen and connects the mainline with Sognefjord. The line's elevation difference is 863 meters (2,831 ft); it has ten stations, twenty tunnels and one bridge. The maximum gradient is 5.5 percent (1:18). Because of its steep gradient and picturesque nature, the Flåm Line is now almost exclusively a tourist service and has become the third-most visited tourist attraction in Norway.

Construction of the line started in 1924, with the line opening in 1940. It allowed the district of Sogn access to Bergen and Oslo via the Bergen Line. Electric traction was taken into use in 1944; at first El 9 locomotives were used, and from 1982 El 11. Until 1991, the train connected with a ferry service from Flåm to Gudvangen. In 1992, freight services were terminated, and due to low ticket prices and high operating costs, the line was nearly closed. In 1998, Flåm Utvikling took over marketing and ticket sale for the line, prices were heavily increased and El 17 locomotives were introduced. The trains remain operated by the Norwegian State Railways (NSB), while the line itself is owned and operated by the Norwegian National Rail Administration.

Bergensbanen snowpiercing Myrdal and Finse, Norway

6/2/2015
The legendary Bergensbanen (Bergen train) is the highest railway line in Northern Europe, connecting Norway's two major cities Oslo and Bergen over Hardangervidda plateau. The train goes through many long tunnels on the plateau. Some of the small stations are actually inside the tunnels. Myrdal and Fense, the two main stations on the plateau, were snow covered when I took the train in June. Myrdal, at 866 meters, connects another legendary steep mountain train Flåmsbana. My original plan was to get off here and hike down Flåmsdalen, but the snow made me stay on the train as if it was the only civilization in the white, like in the movie Snowpiercer. Finse, at 1222 meters, is the highest station on the entire Norwegian Railway System. Temperature was -2°C when we stopped here.

A short portion from a clip of an absolutely beautiful train ride we took while in Norway from Flam to Myrdal enroute to Bergen on the Flamsbana railway with great views of lush greenery, Fjords and waterfalls. The views were so beautiful that even heavy rain couldn't ruin it.

If you have a chance to visit Norway, this spot is not to be missed.
