From Voss to Flåm, Norway

On July 20, 2009, we went to Voss to take a train to Myrdal, and from there we took the train to Flåm.
The Flåm line is one of the steepest railway tracks in the world, and passes through spectacular landscape.

The only sentence I can read is the 2nd line

The train stopped midway, so the passengers can see Kjosfoss waterfalls.  However, my lens was clear for only a few seconds ...

The train passed by a few villages, some hidden in valleys like this.
