Gamle Vossebanen - veterantog med damplokomotiv og spisevogn - 16. august 2026

Take a journey back in time to the golden age of railways, to a time of uniform buttons with the royal coat of arms, the sound of wooden carriage doors slamming shut, and the locomotive whistle saying "all aboard" and the train can go. Relax and enjoy a wonderful Sunday excursion while the landscape rolls past the train windows. The trip is run with a steam locomotive and teak carriages from the 1920s and 30s. Along the way you can experience a beautiful landscape and impressive engineering, close to lakes and water on one side, and steep mountain slopes on the other.

Garnes stasjon is Museet Gamle Vossebanen's main station and two of the train trips start from here. The trip from Midttun will have a longer stop at Garnes. Garnes stasjon has its own museum exhibition, station kiosk, souvenir shop, and otherwise a fine opportunity to look at locomotives and carriages in the station area.

On this day we also have a visit from a professional trio – Boggien Dampjazzband – who play light music in the carriages throughout the day.

The dining car is polished to perfection with real porcelain, white tablecloths, a chef, maître d' and waiters. Let yourself be tempted by food made on board the train, to buy tickets for a train trip (approximately two hours), and reserve a seat in the dining car (approximately one hour) for a wonderful meal on the train.

Reserving a seat in the dining car must be done in addition to purchasing a ticket:
