hi there,

Trying to book a train ticket using ACPRAIL from Copenhagen to Oslo.

Depart Köbenhavn H at 13:32 - Arrive Göteborg C at 17:20 (Train service, number: 1056)
Depart Göteborg C at 17:55 - Arrive Oslo S at 21:49 (Train service, number: 398)
Book these trains separately

It does not allow me to book as there is no price option to choose from.

i try to book by SJ.se , but cant get to book on Sat/Sun depature.
I only can choose departure on Friday using SJ.se ??

With ACPRail, i can choose weekend train?


The available option to book is below route with transit at Kil using ACPRail:

Depart Köbenhavn H at 11:16 - Arrive Göteborg C at 14:30 (Train service, number: 488)
Depart Göteborg C at 15:15 - Arrive Kil at 17:34 (Train service, number: 368)
Depart Kil at 18:37 - Arrive Oslo S at 21:24 (Train service, number: 10053)


Should i just go ahead and book by acprail from Copenhagen to Oslo with 2 transit(Göteborg C and Kil)?

I'm heading to Oslo->Mydrad->Flam.

Thanks

Yes, i did select 11 July, then i got the error msg and jumped back to today date.

Well, i think i will drop the plan to travel to Norway from copenhagen to visit flam, bergen.... i have only 10 full days.

It is better stay in copenhagen and nearby towns to have more sightseeing, slow and relax rather than always rushing. :)

Thanks anyway!

Hi ,

Please look at my itinerary .

I will take overnight train from Oslo to Flam.

Looks ok. :)
Myrdal station has a 24/7 waiting room. It is in the middle of nowhere and has no proper road access so you will be fine. :D

You may consider travelling all the way to Bergen, visit the city and the go to Flam after an overnight stay using one of the Norway in a Nutshell offers via Voss - Gudvangen - ferry to Flam.

This would be an option, yes. Night train to Bergen, arrival at around 0700, walking around the city until the early afternoon, then train to Voss - Myrdal - Flam. Or spend a night in Bergen and go to Flam the next morning.
