"Hello! I am a member of the Swedish Tramway Association and was thinking of visiting Trondheim August 24-26 especially to ride the Gråkallenbanan. I can't find a single free hotel bed in all of Trondheim these days! There is apparently some bigger event going on then. Please! If you know someone who can lend a room these nights, I would be very grateful. Hoping for an answer!" Add a comment Photos from Gråkallbanen in Trondheim (GB) 21:04
Most viewed - September 2024 Gråkallbanen - Most northerly tram system - Lian to Trondheim - Minutt for minutt! (2017) I took a previously unpublished video from Lian to Trondheim on the utterly charming tramway at Trondheim, the Gråkallbanen, in April 2017. The last minute is from another trip, when I had finger problems with my camera!!. This is now the most northerly tram system in the world, with the most northerly tram stop!
Boreal runs the tramway. Its small but very friendly staff does a fine job of keeping the system running.
As well as supporting commuters from the Trondheim suburbs, its aim is very Norwegian- to run out of the city and get lost in the forest! The terminus is at a very popular hiking and skiing area.
This video is a bit rough. I tried to use stabilisation, but it just made it worse. However, travelling in this direction shows the steep gradients more clearly.
Sorry about the lack of "d" in the title screen!! I pronounce it correctly (as they do in Norway) with a silent "d", and I got caught out with my spelling! 5:04
