In Norway there is a rail line from Bergen to Oslo, called "Bergensbanen"

The Norwegian broadcasting system NKR ducktaped a cam to the front of a train (or, more likely, put it in the cabin), pressed on "record", transmitted that and ... made it available for download (under CC-BY-SA license). See http://nrkbeta.no/.../bergensbanen-eng/

The whole vid is 23 GB or, if you want to download the real original, 246 GB and takes 7 hours and 15 minutes to watch - quite a hit on my HD and time.

Therefore, I made a 25x speedup version of 17 minutes, and put that on youtube again. That's a speed where you can enjoy the landscape and that doesn't eat away time like nobody. See http://www.youtube...atch?v=EccB4sYYM9M and press "HD" or "Original" for max resolution . The track doesn't contain audio so supply your own.

Enjoy,

Tijmen

P.S. In the beginning there's quite some black, that's called "tunnel". Judging the histogram I calculated that 22% of the movie is inside a tunnel.

Also see the "time histogram" below, all frames resized to 1x1 pixel, then stuck together (read from left to right, from top to bottom) One pixel is 1 second of the original movie, and 1 line is 50 pixels or 2 seconds of the original movie. So you can see where the train was in a tunnel (black) or stopped (exactly same colour for a longer time), or in snowy landscape (more blueish hue)

Nice one man,

I saw the longer version but never had the time to sit and watch it in full, not to mention the beats could have been a bit better. This is pretty cool. Good job

What's EOT?

Awesome video. Even better on the real thing! Rode part of the way as part of the "Norway in a Nutshell" trip. Recommended if anyone visits and wants to see the country side via train, boat and bus.
