 Hello, thank you for joining me. That is the Norwegian Parliament building. I'm in the center of Oslo. The building right down there That is the Royal Palace. That looks like quite a nice walk But that's not what I'm going to do today. What I'm going to do in today's video We're going to go from the lowest metro station on the Oslo Metro to the highest metro station So we're just here in this rather pleasant square In the center of Oslo and you can see There's that there's a t-sign Cameras not picking it out and that is the likely equivalent of the London Underground round all and that's for the metro So we're going to go into the the metro now the station is called. I'll show it to you Here it's called Shorty get so you can see that T I say that's the symbol of the Oslo Metro I've been told that translates to literally as the thing so this is the lowest station So we've got to go down into the metro and then we're going to take the train all the way up to the highest metro Oslo Metro as I did mention yesterday's video most of it is above ground only a few sections of it Underground this is one of the underground sections. So it comes to here the escalators When we went on it yesterday, we didn't even go on any escalators We did to put it in London context yesterday's video We've really went from say the equivalent of all gate east to bow road And today we're going down into quite a deep station I'm going to take a guess. It's not that long But I think this could be the longest escalator on the Oslo Metro, but I may not be sure so now we We're deep under the ground Station has this sort of feature of all these this But it seems to be the feature of the station. It's got a very 1970s feel now this Is where in London there'd be a gate line. This is the equivalent of a gate line. Hey, you can just walk straight on I do have a ticket. I'll basically pay for 24 hours worth of traveling probably when I finish this video I'll go and top it up So you can top it up in like little corner shops like you can with London oyster card But you can also it's cheaper to top it up the main railway station. So we're sort of in this corridor now and And There's more escalators there so they must take you up to another part of the city now I want the westbound because it's like a giant circle so another similar issue of London It's like the equivalent of London circle line So I need to get on route one. So I'm here. That's sort of me get these various routes I could do I need to do Now that that's the other way That's eastbound I need to do route one and that's the station I'm going to that one there and This is quite always just like I don't know. It doesn't feel like a matter of thought like some sort of strange gem Place bit almost sci-fi like us 70s spaceship. Anyway, we are coming down now on to the platform. So It's got a way to see if there's a train on line one do all it there is a train pulling in on the other side Three one five eight on the scene And from looking on the DMI the dock matrix indicator I can see there is a train to on route one if you look this is two units coupled together They're free car units. So you've got three three five eight three three one oh six It tells you the one coming in now is Is gonna be a six car if you look on the DMI it shows Yes, those two trades one we go three three one one five There's three three oh one seven But the train I'm gonna travel on will be just one of these units. So I'm gonna wait two minutes This one will go one one will arrive I Get this really unusual station or on the branch going off that's like the circle line down there That's the platform going the other way and that just is a footbridge here and there's actually a foot crossing So people as you can see have to cross the tracks and then they cross that bridge That's really unique on you would never get that one on the ground Also, she sees plenty of snow now. I've come further up. So that's the circle metro line tree. That's how The other thing that I find quite amusing is You can see down there people with skis imagine taking skis on the London underground Strangler that's the next station You'd only ever get people taking skis on the land underground say if there's been a lot of snow Maybe people were taking them to hamster teeth or something I just can't imagine people taking skis and learn underground You may be able to tell by looking at the wall that we are clearly climbing I've never run steam on here, but if they did it would be mega a bit like Probably more extreme than when they've done steam up during the bank. I've done steam on the met Anyway, I'm going to continue to enjoy the ride. We've just come to another station They made a few announcements about short platforms. So they said like the last set of doors would not open I don't know if this station is one of them, but quite a few stations. They were saying anyway I'm going to now sit down and enjoy this really rather spectacular metro journey Well, this has to be one of the most spectacular tube journeys or metro journeys I've ever been on We're just coming now to Holmicorn station. It's got short platforms. I've got to walk through the train So we've really really climbed up to an altitude. Look at the snow. It's getting pretty deep We're just coming into Holmicorn now. So this isn't the end of the line So we've got higher to go, but this is where the famous ski jump is So that's why I thought we'd get out here Holmicorn first and have a look. So this is quite exciting Unlike London where they have one a button just for you to see who the tourists are I think I've got to go up there. I'm nearly not gonna get out. Yeah, you have to press the button Shows I don't know what I'm doing here. Whoa brutalist architecture, and it's like really misty So this is Holmicorn. So somewhere around here is that famous ski jump that was used in the Winter Olympics I really like this brutalist architecture brutalist architecture that looks out across the metro station So we're gonna watch our metro train disappear. It has actually got quite a long platform So I'm not sure why they only open the middle doors anyway And it's still climbing So This is Holmicorn The The Yellow what you can see there. That is the third rail pickup and it's underneath. So the train has like a shoe which Goes along like that unlike London where it's on top because for obvious reasons. There's snow I remember they did talk about changing it in London because they said due to the I think they have one day when It snowed and trains didn't run, but you know, this is like this all year. This is just so Just so not like a metro station is just yeah, it's this winter amazing place of just white and gray and Hints of green under the trees. You know, what other tube stations can you pick up snow like this? Just start throwing snow. I can't imagine this. I think probably To give an idea of height that we've come to Think of Wendover used to be on the metropolitan line. It's now on the children line Well, think of Wendover woods So if you ever go on the on the children line or the old metropolitan line or famished and one of children rowers trade You get to Wendover station. If you look out, you'll see Wendover woods above the hills We're probably that kind of equivalent of height. I think So but that'd be like the railway being up in Wendover woods. So we're pretty high Let's have a look at the station There's a train pulling in to Hormocall Metro station. We're gonna go for a little explore I'm gonna come back and continue to the very end of the line That's all rather spectacular up here up on these Mountain roads in the snow. I've just noticed down here. Look, there's a manhole and You can see there's a good three inches of ice Where and they've all this broken ice here Look is where they've had to break away and obviously needed to get to that manhole. Anyway, I think we've come to the ski centre So I'm not really that into skiing But I could see the ski jump from down in the city centre yesterday and this is Appears like I'm coming into Some sort of arena. I walked around the corner and found a hotel Like being in the shining. Oh, look, there's a it's not running, but there's a chair. It's all that be so exciting to go up on that If that's not running now, then when does it run? I wonder always like going on things like chairless and It's more noises coming and yes, it's clearly it's so foggy. Unfortunately, so I'm not gonna see the view of the city But look Well, oh that that's the jump. Yes, that's the jumper. The camera's probably not picking it up I can see the jump is there and There goes the chairlift up there and then there's this huge arena and I'm the only person here Don't everyone else is I thought they'd be like loads of tourists come up here. Look at that There's one other person is couple walking down the steps over there and there's a huge arena So I think if I go just round here, we'll be able to have a little look at the skis And then I'll go back to the metro station and go even higher. It just I can't get my head around This because whenever I go to metros or go on metros in various cities around Europe I'm never that bothered about the metro. I like going on them, but they nearly always underground. I like to So if I go anywhere usually the trams are my kind of priority thing to Transport to travel on for the sake of traveling on tram bashing, but here I Feel like I just want a metro bash and just do all the metro lines I probably will do more tram lines. I'll just have to come back but look at that that is I mean mega Even in this fog it's hard to convey just how vast this is it's huge Yeah, I've never seen quite like this before I mean I have to say I haven't really been to many of these winter ski resorts in the past I really should do if we have some spectacular rails. They certainly do in Switzerland and Austria and Yeah, I might now these are all the seats and there's there's one bloke sat down on the bench there's just not many people about and That is the jump it looks like I'm just pointing into nothingness, but it is yeah spectacular and amazing I'm gonna have just marvel at this now off-camera and then walk back to the metro station There we are back on the train just departing home the calm So it's about three or four more stations to the top and the platform is as I said the most stations on this line On a level that's the old light station master's house that building there I'm not too sure possibly the trains taking quite an extreme curve that it was like all like this sort of lots of Hairpin bends as far as a train can go on this line. There weren't any spirals It hasn't since we've come out of Oslo city center. We've not been through any tunnels So it's just a really really spectacular journey. Oh, we just asked. I just saw the other side There's a big flash where the further on our platform That's for there's no one That's interesting Why is there two random platforms, you know and do comment and tell me I'm gonna continue enjoying the journey It's a shame it's got really foggy because if it wasn't foggy It would be a spectacular view. I'm gonna continue enjoying the journey up to the top We're just coming in now to the final station line. In fact, we're we're here And it's it's literally been all forestry for the last few miles. There's been no real Settlement at all a few little villages if I could get out said the platform's really short So it's not open there. It's quite funny. Everyone's getting off with skis and snowboards How's this as we arrive at the highest metro station? Everyone's got skis snowboards to Boggins So here we are. This is the highest metro station. Not quite sure how you pronounce it 469 meters above sea level and the train doesn't quite fit in the platform It's gonna have a look at the end as it's just yeah, this is Do an error crush I've understand means doors closing. So this is just like yeah. Is he going already? Or maybe it goes to a turn-back siding I'm not sure But here we are at the top of the metro and there's a level crossing in front of us So what's going on? Honestly, yeah, I think the train continues a bit further It's so strange with a metro station and people disappearing off onto Boggins You're never gonna see that in London or probably many other cities The other thing is when we were at home again where the ski jump was it was rather foggy have a look now We are above the fog We've really yeah, we've come to the extreme of Metro's there's a restaurant down there lots of walking trails you can do Let's have a look at the train and there is the train itself. That is The driver's going to bring it forward. I'm not sure drivers going to bring it forward, but Get the driver said it's okay to cross so we can cross the line Highest metro station, and there's our train. This is so exciting. This is just yeah the There we go. He's going to the reverse inside me now. I think So number 3342 is the highest metro train I've ever been on There he goes into the reverse exciting. So you got this little shelter here Which the seats that rather cold on I'm gonna have a look see if I can find a cafe I really want to get a coffee at the highest metro station. I'm not sure actually the highest much station in the world It's the highest Difference in the shortest difference, you know means we were down at the lowest station and we've come up really high There's more people off going off there with skis. It's just all um, it's just not what we're used to in London So here we are. This is from the second. I said the train went off to the river exciting. I feel I'm not quite done yet I want to oh it's coming back. I Just because I want to go and see where the actual end of the metro is So let's just see the train come into the station here. We are the highest metro station. We can see the train arrive So that's the same one we were on. I just want to see what's around the corner really and see What there is at the highest metro station like where does the train go can't go far but there's clearly a reversing siding just around the corner. I Just can't go over watching everyone get off a metro train on skis. It just seems so just not what we're used to look at this It's just like amazing I've been to places a bit like this in the past but not so close to a city centre like Usually you'd sort of go somewhere you'd have to travel on a train an hour The fact that we've got here so quickly It's on possibly one of the most spectacular rides I've ever done on a metro train There's those platforms there those platforms we saw and must be what they're for for drivers to get out So perhaps at other station they sometimes turn trains back I'm not sure how far I should go up here I think there's no starting to melt all the snow is coming off the trees, but that siding must go Just behind those trees there It's mad so just snow everywhere and Yeah, the metro continues. So there's not really a lot else to do. I can't see anywhere to get a coffee There probably is but I just haven't found it. There's just something around the corner I feel like I'm just going off now for a walk in the countryside and as much as I'd like to I Don't feel now's the time. I just want to have a look in here and Have a look see if I can see I'm just like slipping into the snow and see if I can find the end of Well, the snow is really deep here to drift That's got to be the end of the line just around the corner. I'm not going to go any further So I hope you enjoyed this video. Thank you very much for watching. Please. This is sorry This is hard to get out of it Please do feel free to like subscribe and comment and from the end of the metro line In Oslo. Goodbye
