I'm actually in the middle of becoming a railroad engineer here in Norway. I'm about half way now, the course only takes one year to complete.
So far I've had my first practice on the Airport Express Train that runs between Oslo Central Station and Gardermoen Airport. They run the
GMB Class 71.


Now I'm in the middle of learning how to connect wagons and engines and so on.
So in the last week I've driven both the
NSB El 14
, NSB El 16 and the NSB Di 8.

I'm really enjoying it so far, even if it is quite a bit of studying, and apparently the next exam is one of the hardest.. so I'd better quit procrastination and get back to the books.

I would have posted pics, but waffleimages is down.
