An airport express of the class 71 speeds up through the eastern part of central Oslo 13.05.01.  The first 1500 metres eastwards from Oslo Central Station, the trains run on an elevated track with dwellers on both sides, which has resulted in a lot of local protests; demanding the government of Oslo to build a new tunnel.  So far, however, the inhabitants seem to have lost their struggle.

(I'm sorry if I sound a bit away from their problems, but, in fact: The elevated track offers several excellent opportunities to photographe trains!)
