HOW TO GET FROM OSLO AIRPORT TO CITY CENTER
#Distantlands #Norway #traveltips
Nestled between pristine forest and a fjord, Oslo is a compact city that is an easy jumping off place to explore all of Scandinavia. So after flying into this gem of a city, how do you get from the airport to Oslo city center? That is easy.
Oslo's main airport is located in the town of Gardermoen, located 45 kilometers north of Oslo’s city center. Traveling between Oslo’s main airport at Gardermoen and the city center is easy. The cheapest and also one of the fastest ways to get to the city center is by hopping on the local train, but there other options including the Airport Express train, bus, and of course, taxi and ride share service.
Norway In Summer, Heaven On Earth
The best time to visit Norway perfect for most tourists is late spring and early summer, especially the months of June and July. The weather is gorgeous and the landscape is covered in a thick blanket of grass and multi color flowers.

Riding Flytoget, Express Train From Oslo Airport To Central Station, Oslo
Flytoget, the Airport Express Train is a Norwegian high-speed airport rail link connecting Oslo Airport, Gardermoen to Oslo Central Station in nineteen minutes.[5] Run by Flytoget, it operates on the high-speed Gardermoen Line using sixteen GMB Class 71 electric trains. Normal service frequency is once every ten minutes, with five of the services each hour continuing westwards beyond Oslo Central. The extended services serve nine stops within Greater Oslo and take up to 60 minutes.
Flytoget transported 5.4 million passengers in 2007, a 34-percent market share of airport ground transport.[6] The service, which has a top speed of 210 kilometres per hour (130 mph), is the only high-speed rail service in Norway. Construction started in 1994 and high-speed trains began serving Gardermoen Airport from the date of its opening on 8 October 1998, although full operation using the 14.5-kilometre-long (9.0 mi) Romerike Tunnel had to wait another ten and a half months after severe leaks caused by the tunnel's construction led to the partial depletion of two lakes.
Formed in 1992 as a subsidiary of Norwegian State Railways, the company has been owned since 2001 by the Norwegian Ministry of Trade and Industry.

Bergensbanen - Bergen to Oslo S. in 1 hour (Norway)
The original journey takes around 7 1/2 hours. Since some years, the length of the line was shortened (New tunnels).
This is an accelerated version of the original video, to 1 hour.
This line is a journey I really want to do, but I can't now (temporary job and not enough money).
This video is a documentary made by the NRK in 2009 (100 years of the line), the Norsk Broadcasting company. Every minute is shown, nothing cut. (

There's no music, so you can play your own. It's better to listen to your songs ;)
