The train departed from Bergen station while being watched by a hand waving person. It is the start of a long journey of seven hours.


The train goes as if it were a scenery like a box garden.


I entered the tunnel in 2 minutes 30 seconds after leaving the station. Its length is 7670 meters, so even though the movie is about to start, it is surprisingly unexpectedly surprising that from here on here the picture of dark and darkness lasts for about 4 minutes.


At last the exit of the tunnel came into sight.


The train arrived at Arna Station, which is the first stop. However, the entrance of the tunnel is again in the direction of travel.


As soon as he departs, he enters the tunnel again. This time it was a tunnel of 2190 meters.


I leave the tunnel in about two minutes. This movie does not specially enjoy the tunnel, but in the full movie, it shows how to go through 182 tunnels together with large and small.


A peaceful mountain landscape


Tunnel again


There is a section running parallel to the motorway.


The bay continues to the deep inside the land in NorwayFjords country. The train goes on and on along such a fjord.


Eventually the figure of the mountain holding snow in front of us.


About 1 hour from Bergen Station, the train is famous as a winter resort areaVosArrival in.


After that, a peaceful landscape continues.


A passenger aircraft that can see this imageThalesIt is a machine equipped with in-flight entertainment facilities of the company, specifically the company ownsBoeing 787 aircraftandAirbus A 380 type machineIt is said that it is a part of target. On the screen, in addition to enjoying regular games and movies besides the images of this train, there are also images prepared to continue knitting just as well as images that keep giving food to birds in the park.

Snowy appearance on the railroad track.


The snow will deepen steadily.


Completely snowy state.


When I pass through the tunnel, it is a snow country.


Arrived at Snow covered station, Finance.


It seems like the area where Finance Station is the most snowy, and when running for a while the snow has become considerably less.


And the train arrived at Gol station. The time required for this was 3 hours and 56 minutes.


The second half of the movie from here. The train goes all the way toward Oslo at the terminal station. The number of times the tunnel comes out when I notice it has drastically decreased.


Coniferous trees and others that make Northern Europe feel like it.


It looks pretty close to the city. In the first half I will come to see the Iron Bridge I almost did not see.


A pretty design station building that makes you feel Europe.


The appearance of the house has increased also along the railroad track.


It seems like the expressway and buildings, etc. are all getting close to the city.


The appearance of the station is also quite modern.


It became a totally urban area.


Oslo at the terminal station is close at hand. When entering the city of Oslo, the train entered the basement.


And when you leave the last tunnel ......


That was the city of Oslo. It was about 7 hours to this far and it was the whole story of a long journey of 496 km in distance. It may be nice to watch this movie dazzling on a day when you do nothing.


In addition, when viewing the first part and the second part of the movie at the highest image quality, the data volume which reaches about 7 GB is a large volume. When browsing with a smartphone, attention is required because it will exceed the upper limit of traffic volume at a stroke unless it is connected to Wi-Fi.
