    Trondheim πŸ‡³πŸ‡΄ to Oslo πŸ‡³πŸ‡΄ – a winter escape across Norway on the Dovre railway!

    Excerpt

    Norway’s Dovre Railway, linking Oslo with Trondheim offers travellers picturesque landscapes. After a bridge collapse in 2023, part of the line was closed until May 2024 but travel was still possible. This report details both the loco-hauled and Class 73 trains on the route, offering a comfortable travel environment, scenic views, and onboard amenities.
