Norway by Train - Traveller's Notes

With public trains that climb up to 3000ft in one journey and funicular railways that ascend mountains, travelling through Norway by train can quickly turn into an adventure.

If you choose to dine separately to the group while seeing Norway by train then do not feel obliged to tip. It is polite to reward good service but 10% of the bill is considered very generous.
