Gråkallbanen - Page 1
show the trams used on the Gråkallbanen. This is the most northerly surviving tramway in the world.
I last visited the line on 10th August 2005 on a
QE2
cruise, two days after the increased 15 minute interval service began. Images from this visit have been added below. I previously visited the line on an
Oriana
cruise in 1996, and images from this visit will be added soon. Unfortunately the museum at Munkvoll was closed on both my visits.
