Great video, Pat. We loved your advice about the luggage delivery service. We wouldn't have thought of that. Also, beautiful scenery vids. The music was the best yet.

Thank you Pat, excellent tips for this usually busy route. Scottish blogger Steve Marsh covered this before and mentioned something like 180 tunnels

I remember the train excursion I did when we stopped in Eidfjord port, and took the train from Voss to Geiglo. I was amazed at how many people couldn't figure out how to open the doors between trains. The train you were on had a different method of opening the doors, but the car I was on, had a button you would push on the wall. People would walk right past the button, and stand at the doors confused on how to open them. Our tour group ended up having to tell people how to open the doors every 15ish minutes. It started getting ridiculous after awhile to the point where we started playing the "hot and cold" game with people to see if they would figure it out.

Thanks Pat for the footage inside the train. This has been incredibly helpful to me when booking tickets. I have just booked tickets now! I am going to take my suitcase and store it one of the racks near the door. I will be about 3 rows from it. I have a bicycle lock, to lock it to the rack. I'm concerned about someone making off with it at one of the stops. I'm undecided about getting my luggage transferred, I will see how I go. I'm going from Bergen to Oslo. Thanks again!!

I’m looking at doing this trip in the summer but in reverse, from Bergen to Oslo. This was incredibly helpful!

Very helpful video. We will be taking this train ride in May. Thank you for all the tips. We will definitely purchase our tickets ahead of time.

Well done on your video Pat. We're planning to do this train trip in 2024 and you have provided some very useful and pragmatic advice. I also like your dry sense of humour. Thanks Pat.

Great video. I'm looking forward to this train trip in June 2025.

You are correct in saying Fince is the summit of the line, however your next shot is of Mydral with the train departing down to Flam, which is worth a mention. 😊

Thanks Dad….but seriously great video. A lot of young people have great fancy videos which feel inauthentic. Drone footage etc everything is amazing x and y. Your video gives me a better sense of everything. Keep up the dad feel it worked for me. Subscribed

Hi! Which company did you use to transfer luggage to Bergen hotel? Loved your video! Do you have any videos for cruises...most notably Viking?

[markguertin]

Pat, thanks for the very informative video. A lot of good information. We are considering the pre cruise extension in Oslo with a Viking cruise in May 2025. Did you take the train in conjunction with a Viking (or other cruise line) cruise? Do you know if the luggage transfer companies will transfer luggage to a cruise ship? Thanks!

Pat did your luggage arrive ok? We travel on Sunday and like the idea of luggage transfer. By the way who did you use?
