Switching at Berekvam Station on Flåmsbana near Flåm, Norway

At the halfway point of your ride between Flåm and Myrdal, your train will stop at Berekvam Station (elevation 1,129 feet). Nobody will exit. The reason for the delay is because Flåmsbana only has one track. Trains going the opposite direction meet here to slowly bypass each other. Surprisingly, this process is done manually using hand flags by day and torches by night.
