4K CAB VIEW: Late Summer Train in the Nordic Mountains
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 июн 2024
- Going over the mountain from Ål to Bergen on this nice late nordic summer. It's already August and summer is soon starting to turn into autumn.
Running somewhat late from Ål due to track work in the Halling Valley I "race against time" all the way to Bergen to try and catch up with the schedule.
Again we go through some showers along the way to Bergen but overall the weather was very good.
Testing out another lens configuration. This time with the Canon 16-35mm 2.8L USM II set to 24mm.

Thank you so much!
Thank you so so much God bless you
You are so welcome
Thank you I like wonderful trip
Glad you enjoyed it
This is really a nice video. I guess as a train driver you never get tired of the landscape. Regards from Denmark
Great ride, with wonderful landscapes, and preserved nature, in one word, a pleasant experience. Thank you very much for everything, full respect to the cameraman.
Best Regards,
Zika, Belgrade, Serbia 🖐👍👨
A late summer day, the ponds of melt water are invitingly cold and clear. Snow, basking in the warmth of sun, similarly inviting us in.
Thank you for reminding us of this video. Lovely, beautiful. At the one hour mark at present, bingeing on through the final credits.
Thanks, glad you like it :)
beautiful I very love that.
Thank you! Cheers!
That was a lovely way to spend three hours of my 77th birthday. Thank you so much xx
Congratulations!
Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed it! ❤️
I am so envious of you, getting paid for doing this job is comparable to being a Ferrari test driver. A dream vocation :)
98
Thanks a lot :)
I love to watch this when I'm working from home and doing a repetitive task. It makes me feel like I'm travelling.
Thanks, glad you like it!
Wow - the light and shadow on those three hills just across the water at 39:48...and then that small farm nestled down by the embankment at 40:15 - lovely!
And the high mountain pass in summer - what rugged beauty, my goodness!
Thank you so much for watching!
RailCowGirl- am sorry that I have missed the last few videos. Will watch them. Been very busy with family. But I have enjoyef watching this run. Have not forgot just how Beautiful Norway is. It truly is a land of wonder. Thanks RCG.
Thank you so much!
Surprised how few folks are out and about. Very few autos. But did see 2 folks fishing. I wish them excitement. And all they have to do to see beauty, is raise their view. They are already lucky.
This was filmed in august 2020, so Covid still made people stay at home. Norway is a small country though, with only about 5 million people spread out, so it's not usually "a lot" of people anyway. But less in this video because of Covid.
Always pleasant to visit RCG's journeys. Love it!
Glad you enjoyed it! ❤️❤️
Keep up the good work RCG, you are still simply the best by far!
Thank you so much!
Stunning colours in the mountains between Hallingskeid and Myrdal, especially around where the contractors are building (replacing?) the snow sheds (1.08 or thereabouts) As you have always said RCG, every journey is different. I never tire of them.
Thank you so much. Yes, even though it's the same line, it's never the same ;)
Wow! What gorgeous scenery! I want to visit Norway now.
Go for it!
What a beautiful area. 👍
It really is!
Love the lush green right now. Today it was 115 degrees F in Las Vegas, and this video was welcome cool escape from reality. These videos relax me so much that I tend to drift off. I have to watch them several times to get the whole show. I’m afraid that if I drove the train I would fall asleep then, too.
Haha, thank you so much! ❤️
amazing scenery! :)
Thank you very much! ❤️
Wow, so many weather conditions in one trip, great scenery, thanks for sharing 🥰
Thank you so much!
A beautiful movie. Thank you for seeing what you see at work. I am delighted with Norway.
Thank you very much! :D
Another beautiful journey. My favourite parts were the gentle rain between Trengereid and Arna, pushing fog through the tunnels and also watching lucky Norwegians standing in the river, fishing as you went past. Beautiful country, thanks for sharing it with us.
Also congrats on reaching 100k subscribers!!
Mine too! Salmon fishing season here now :D
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️🎉🎉🎉🎉
I really enjoy your videos. I particularly like the snowy ones because where I live we don't get much snow in the winter.
Glad you like them! ❤️
beautiful country, thank you!
Thank you!

Most of the rural properties in Norway seem to have great views. Beautiful country side.
I think you're right 😉 Thank you for watching!
Спасибо за видео !!
Thank you for watching!
Gorgeous views.
They are! One of the reasons I love my job :D
Its really awesome view, video editing is great as always... 👌
Thanks a lot 😊
Great scenery. .......Looks so much different in the summer compared to ❄️ winter time! 😃❤️
It truly does :) now that autumn is coming, the colors changes really fast in the mountains, much faster than in the lower areas :)
@@RailCowGirl Does this train run year round. How much snow is on the ground during the winter & how do people make a living in such remote areas? It is beautiful but I would imaggine to cold for this girl from the southern US.
@@duckducknight Yes the train runs everyday all year round. You find several videos on my channel that shows you how much snow it can be on the Line during winter.
Hola desde Mexicali México. Gracias por compartir esos bellos lugares 🙋🏽♂️
Thank you so much!
Beautiful ride. The Finse tunnel looks very nice
The tunnel is pretty awesome :D
Here is a video I made from what's inside the tunnel :D ruclips.net/video/RkedIcqXXdw/видео.html
That's a sick horn on your wicked, awesome, goat-chasing train 🐐 . . . definitely looks like an early autumn (the leaves are already beginning to fall in my part of the world); stay safe and well out there!
Hiiiiii-haaaaaaaaaah! :p
Waoooo.... amazing journey 👌👌👌👌
Thanks a ton :D
Thank you RCG...🙂🇳🇴
You're welcome ❤️
Awesome jump in a spectacular location! Thanks for sharing!😊
Thank you for watching :)
RCG I LOVE Your Videos So Much, They're (Almost) Making Me Want To Visit Norway.
Thank you so much!
Great video. I was hoping to see a viking ship on the right side 😉. Greetings from Timișoara Romania!
Thank you! Not many viking ships these days 😆
Really beautiful scenery on this trip.
I would love to spend a warm season there, it would be the trip of a lifetime !
Enjoyed the ride along, THANKS !
You should! :D
Nice video and landscape!
Thank you!
Whoot! I'd better get cracking and finish the sleeper train video. I'm running behind. :D This is my favorite "leg" of the Bergen-Oslo train...the journey from Ål down (well, up and down) to Bergen!
@WhiteTiger333 Why Is This Your Favorite Section Of The Bergen Line (Bergensbanen)?
@@calebtrains2261 The breathtaking beauty of the mountains, waters and surrounding countryside. Granted half is inside tunnels, but out of them. :D I do also enjoy the other "end" of the journey because of the plethora of farms. I like seeing farms anywhere in the world.
@@WhiteTiger333 I Agree IT'S Very Pretty Outside Of The Tunnels.
I enjoyed the video very much 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Glad you enjoyed it ❤️😃
The scenery in late summer is nice too, very colourful, i would love to take a trip on the train in Norway.
Thanks, glad you like it!
Love it!
Thank you!
There's a lot of snow for the end of summer. It feels like May or June, not August. Even on the lakes, in some places, the ice remained
In the mountains the snow arrives earlier and lasts for a longer time. So even though it's almost spring or summer in the lowlands, the mountains can still be winter-ish.
Another great video Thanks. I enjoy the mountains and small villages.
Glad you like them! ❤️❤️❤️
Было бы хорошо, если бы вы указывали длинну тоннелей, интересно!
Hi. I have several videos with tunnel lengths, you can find them in this playlist here: ruclips.net/p/PLqVXtaI0Orw7ageOY4IQCpTQwYRmqryZI&si=BYFweoWOLHPgh_fj
Another wonderful Norwegian rail journey....!!!
Beuattiful road
Thank you!
It appears to be a cool summer at Finse this year.
It was allot of snow this winter in the mountains.
Superb scenery. Want to understand the signal aspect. In India we have 4 aspect signal in automatic section and 3 aspect signal in absolute block.
Check out the links in the description :)
August sometimes feels almost autumnal already.
In the mountains it has already started :D And intense colors lasts for about two weeks in September and then all the leafs fall off.
Greeting from Canada. Another great video, thanks for sharing. Building this line must have taken many years with all the tunnels and infrastructure. You can almost experience all four seasons and the scenery is amazing. A couple questions if I may? What do the people do in those small villages? Where do they work and do they commute to larger centres? Last one, do people actually live in those homes at the top of the mountain. I will have to search your channel for some videos of winter on that line. Thanks again for letting us ride along with you and be safe.
I have the same questions. It must get pretty lonely up at the top of those mountains.
No, in the mountains the "houses" you see are cabins. Norwegians love their cabins and use them in most weekends and holidays.
Det hadde vært moro å sett hvor fort toget går
Max hastighet er 160 km/t.
❤
Boa tarde Pernambuco Brasil gosto muito de ver esses vídeos é muito bom mesmo
Sou do Mato Grosso e realmente esses vídeos dão uma calma, uma paz. Bom ver outro brasileiro aqui!
O que mais tem é brasileiro no mundo ! E olha que eu sou um dos que não estão mais no Brasil... Abraço pros conterrâneos.
Eu assisto todos os vídeos de trem que eu posso encontrar. A melhor maneira de viajar por aí sem problemas...
Thank you so much!
It's summer and everybody is wearing heavy winter coats. If it gets up to 10C (50F), I bet everybody in the country starts doing cartwheels down Main Street...
It's almost like that :p
HCG: Thank you for the lovely trip. Did you have your matpakke? Before or during or after?
Norwegians always have matpakke, duh 😆
🍎👍 Fantastic mountain scenery. -H
It really is! :D So beautiful up there :D
A pleasant visit in your channel nice place which country this place
Thank you! All of my videos are from Norway. Most are from Bergen line, then Flåm line, and some from other parts in Norway. Most recent South line and Dovre line.
Hello from Colorado
Can you imagine a drone shot or two, amazing but possibly too expensive. One can dream and consider donating
A second person outside the train would have to set up a drone shot !
A drone shot briefly following the train from above would be awesome !
I do have a playlist with the videos where I have included drone shots, but there's only two videos so far. I'm hoping to do more drone shots in the future though. ruclips.net/p/PLqVXtaI0Orw5jVlj9Ake76jloMijguI3b&si=Nanq2frJ42Q6zngz
@RailCowGirl Greetings From Caleb Trains22. Once Again, AWESOME Video Of The Norwegian Countryside, From The Train Driver's Point Of View, Of Course. Also, Have You Ever Been To Any Of The Other Norwegian Rail Lines?
I used to be based in Oslo, this was before I started to record and before the camera tech started to get really good.
I was certified on:
Oslo - Kristiansand (south line)
Oslo - Dombås (Dovre Line)
Oslo - Halden (East Line western section)
Oslo - Mysen - Rakkestad (East line eastern part, before it turned into ERTMS/ETCS
Lillestrøm - Oslo - Spikkestad
Oslo - Kongsvinger
And
Oslo - Ål
These was the lines I usually worked on
@@RailCowGirl That's Interesting, Because I Think The Norwegian Countryside Looks Beautiful.
@@calebtrains2261 Yep... now everything is chopped up into different companies.. Dovre Line is the Swedish company SJ.... the South Line is now the British company GoAhead... Privatisation is ruining everything.
@@RailCowGirl That's Stinks Because The Money Goes To Those Other Countries, And/Or Their Railroads. I Think America's Railroads Are (Or At Least Planning) To Be Like That.
Are you doing an autumn one too please?
Yes I am :)
What strikes me is that the camera does not adjust the exposure very quickly when you come out of a tunnel. Is the camera so slow with that?
This is a cinema camera
I watched the winter video from FLAM to MYRDAL and I have a question: Is there any amount of snow that makes the trains stop? Or they will always have the tracks clean in this case? Thank you.
There is a snow readiness team working around the clock during winter to keep the mountain pass clear :)
Yes. I'm not sure if that was the correct spelling. We ended up being very good friends. He was from Oslo
Whoop whoop :D That is so cool :D
At the beginning, why do you get in on the side opposite the platform...?
Didn’t want to wrestle the drivers seat with a huge backpack ;) not space enough between the seat and back wall :)
Hi, it looks still like summer but I see people with the hood on, is it already so could?
The Norwegian summer can be cold, yes 😅
yup another wonderful video for sure, thank you for sharing, I have a question please, at the beginning u hopped to the cab by the left door why not by the right one?
The drivers chair is there, so I would have to flip that forward before climbing in :)
@@RailCowGirl thanks for the explanation
Bare elsker denne kanalen. Lydsporet alene er nok til at pulsen går ned. :)
Hurra 😃❤️
What camera body are you using and card type ?
Using a Blackmagic Pocket Cinema 6K and 4x Samsung T5 2TB
@@RailCowGirl Wow, expensive!
Did the train waiting at Myrdal, follow you down fairly shortly after? Otherwise the passenger waiting at Ljosanbotn is going to have a very long wait. (Or maybe she was just waiting to cross with her dog).
Yes, the train to the left at Myrdal is the local service going behind my train here. It stops on request on all stations/halts between Myrdal and Voss. The train to the right at Myrdal is the Flåm railway, going down to Flåm :)
Did you win in the race with the clock? How far behind did you start out and were you able to make up any of that time?
Nope.. was able to cut the delay down to 15 minutes instead of 30, but that was about it.
@@RailCowGirl Cutting the delay in half is impressive! Well done!
I was good friends with a exchange student from Oslo . Way back in high school in the late 60s. We hung out together. Hes name was Byorn Thudavulson.
Bjørn Thorvaldsen? :D
RCG do you enjoy Vikingane? :-)
Haven't watched it 😆
It may be just me, but this camera seems to struggle more adjusting to variable lighting conditions. Nevertheless, thank you for your tremendous effort.
Can you please elaborate? :)
@@RailCowGirl I hesitated to say anything because you work hard to make these videos, and we all appreciate that. And your video experience and English are way better than my Norwegian (= zero), so you have my respect. To try to elaborate, the auto light-level adjustments are abrupt and distracting lately, especially when you are in shadow and the sky is bright, for example, but also in places where the light changes just a little bit, the camera tries to make up for it suddenly and sharply. It becomes distracting. Look at Chasing Rainbows (excellent color, btw) starting about 42:00 - 46:00 and onward as the sun sets more. As the video continues and the light gets more variable, the situation becomes more noticeable as the camera fights its way through shadows and ever-changing light levels. It's really been most noticeable on the two most recent videos, Chasing Rainbows and Late Summer Train in the Nordic Mountains. I don't recall it being a problem on your earlier videos. Is there an adjustment to make the auto light-level more subtle? I am no expert, just a watcher, so maybe I don't know what I'm asking. In the audio world it's called automatic gain control where you can adjust the "attack rate" to control how quickly the equipment reacts to changes in audio level. I'm not sure what it would be in the video world, but "light level attack rate" is sort of what I'm getting at.
By way of comparison, I went back to "Winter dawn in the Local Service" Apr 10, 2020; it definitely has some bizarre outside lighting conditions, and the video is perfect. It has none of the jerky, acute light level changes I'm trying to describe above. The light level transitions are very smooth and natural, and the viewer cannot tell what adjustments the camera might be making. That video seems to do much better in variable low light, including tunnels. So whatever you were doing there... was good. Nordic midsummer night train from Oslo to Ål was also very good in this respect and does not show the jagged light level adjustment problem either. So something is different on these last two videos posted. Is it a difference in cameras? Thank you for your patience reading this.
I know what you're talking about, and I know what the thing is. :) And what the solution is ;)
This issue is how the Camera is metering the scene. I've asked Blackmagic if it's possible for them to add SPOT metering in. the future, since they're already mapping all the pixels on the sensor, it shouldn't be a big job to add them to groups where the user can tell where it should meter the scene.
@@RailCowGirl Hei! Virker som kameraet sliter med auto isoen. Den forandrer seg trinnvis. ikke sømløst, for å si det sånn. kaneraet er også utrolig bra i mørket, men synts faktisk Gopro gir bedre bilder i dagslys. Men takk for flotte videoer. er selv jernbane intresert, men foretrekker damp. :)
@@laciport100 Det er ikke noe Autoiso på dette kameraet.
Dette er et CINEMA kamera. Det hadde fungert bedre om jeg hadde hatt muligheten til SPOT metering. Den trinnvise reguleringen kommer pga endringer i lukkerhastighet.
Can you tell me what font you use for the rail station names in yellow?
Hi, it's Montserrat.
I think so.
Thanks for watching!
45:57 Who knows what kind of wooden constructioin is on the right side ?
All aboard!!!
The Herd Train! :D
@@RailCowGirl I'd like to see you catch a monster salmon out of one of those rivers. Delicious. Nothing better that a salmon steak cooked and seasoned to perfection! My tummy is growling just thinking about it! Served up right with some fresh asparagus. To die for! Awesome vid btw. so beautiful!
Snow in August?
Yes? It’s the snow from last winter that has yet to melt and soon it’ll start snowing again. Remember that Norway is on the same longitude as Alaska, and the snow is in the mountain pass 4000ft above sea level :)
@@RailCowGirl Almost Tundra then ..
@@pdppanelman5889 Almost? Literally Tundra and subarctic climate. commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Norway_map_of_K%C3%B6ppen_climate_classification.svg

The Rain
2018 ‧ Drama ‧ 3 seasons The world as we know it has come to an end, due to a rain-carried virus that wiped out nearly everybody in Scandinavia.

After discovering all remnants of civilization gone, they join a group of fellow young survivors, and together they head out on a danger-filled quest throughout the abandoned land in search of signs of life. The survivors think they have been set free from societal rules of the past, but they quickly find that even in a post-apocalyptic world there is love, jealousy and other coming-of-age dilemmas that young people have always faced.
First episode date: May 4, 2018

Language: Danish
Network: Netflix
Seen it :D It's a good series :) Several scenes from the last season was filmed in Voss and in Dale :)

@@RailCowGirl i see, nice....😁
RCG; for starters, why did you go around to get in the locomotive from the left side? 3 + hour video!?!? I'm going to have to split my viewing up over several days!
Drivers chair in the way? :)
@@RailCowGirl Hmmm....good answer but you're not sure? Why bother with having a RH door at all? (I suppose emergency access) Or maybe locomotives sold to the British Commonwealth have the driver's seats opposite???
You probably spelled it correctly .
