Hardangerbanen or the Hardanger Line was a 27.5 km railway branch line between Voss and Granvin in Hardanger connecting Voss to the sea and Hardangerfjord.
[edit] History
The decision to build the railway was made in 1919, though the railway was not opened until March 30, 1935; the first railway in the country to open with electric traction. The entire life of the line NSB used three type 64 electric multiple units built in 1934; trains that didn't serve on any other line save Flåmsbana. The passenger transport on the line was canceled on June 1, 1985 and the freight traffic in 1989.[1] The first 3.39 km of the line between Voss and Palmafoss freight terminal are kept as a freight line. Most of the rest of line is a bicycle path.
