We are having pretty bad weather right now - quite a bit of heavy wet snow that causes trouble with switches and the need for frequent plowing.
But never so bad that it is not good for something - it is perfect weather for testing new train sets of Electric Motor Units that the Norwegian State Railroads are buying from the Swiss company Stadler.
A new Stadler FLIRT (Fast Light Innovative Regional Train) five car electric motor unit set is apparently being tested under winter conditions over here right now - a fellow railroad enthusiast caught this picture in the town of Drammen today (from http://mjforum.no/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=6954:
