El13

An El 13 in need of a sat-nav. Ofotbanen loco in Bergen station a long way away from the Narvik line that it usually inhabits. Seen from the bus station, I grabbed this shot before I went into the Railway station just in case. Unusually wise thinking on my part as it moved off the wall as I put the camera down. Anybody know why it was there? 22nd May 2007

Class 66


Two pictures taken on the 14th June 2010 at Bodo. Looking across the goods yard while I was walking back into Bodo I saw these and wondered what 66s were classed as in Norway. The trouble with a stupid question is that you don't always spot it in time. Sorry about the spelling one day I will find the accents.

Skd 220

One of the things I like to do on holiday is to wander around just following my nose. This is how I finished up at Sandnes station waiting for a train back to Stavanger. Just in time to see what I took to a trip working to Stavanger goods terminal. July 1997

Type 21c



Taken at Bressingham this in May 1989. It carries the name Kong Hakon. I do not know if this was given when it came to England or if it was used in service. It was in steam for footplate rides. I cannot remember now if I learnt then or later that a fireman was killed when a boiler plug failed.
