An Entity of Type: railway line, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Nesttun–Os Line (Norwegian: Nesttun–Osbanen) was a narrow gauge railway between Nesttun, now part of Bergen, and the community of Osøyro in Os municipality, Norway. As the first private railway in Norway, it opened 1 June 1894, designed to connect Os to the Voss Line, allowing for passenger and freight transport to Bergen and Voss. Despite a boom caused by World War I, the railway was eventually driven out of business by competition from road transport, which provided faster service. On 2 September 1935, it became the first Norwegian railway to close, and most of the railway was dismantled the following year.

dbo:abstract
  • Die Bahnstrecke Nesttun–Os (norwegisch Nesttun–Osbanen) war eine Schmalspurbahn zwischen , jetzt Teil von Bergen, und Osøyro in der Gemeinde Bjørnafjorden im Fylke Vestland in Norwegen. Sie wurde als erste private Eisenbahn in Norwegen am 1. Juni 1894 eröffnet. Die Strecke wurde gebaut, um Os mit der Vossebane im Personen- und Güterverkehr an Bergen und Voss anzuschließen. Am 2. September 1935 war die Strecke die erste norwegische Eisenbahnstrecke, die geschlossen wurde. Es überlebten nur kurze Abschnitte der Bahn und einige Bahnhöfe. Ein großer Teil der ehemaligen Bahnstrecke wird als Radwanderweg benutzt, was die Wiederbelebung der Strecke Nesttun–Os als Museumseisenbahn unmöglich macht. Ein Gleisstück liegt am Bahnhof Stend, der unverändert blieb. Dort wurden eine Diesellokomotive und ein Personenwagen zur Erinnerung an die Strecke aufgestellt. Das Bahnhofsgebäude selbst wurde restauriert und wird als Museum genutzt. (de)

On 2 September 1935, it became the first Norwegian railway to close, and most of the railway was dismantled the following year. Today, only short stretches of the railway and a few stations survive. Much of the former railway line is used as a bicycle path (rail trail), which makes revival of the Nesttun–Os Railway as a heritage railway very difficult. However, a 40 metre long railway stretch remains at Stend Station, the only unaltered remaining station, upon which a diesel locomotive and a passenger car are placed. The station building itself has been restored and is used as a museum. (en)
