Vålerenga Lineの英語

The Vålerenga line (Norwegian: Vålerenglinjen), also known as Helsfyr Line and Etterstad Line is an abolished tram line in Eastern Oslo. It branched from the Gamleby Line, which was established in 1875 as a horse tram service. From 1875 to 1899, the line ran from Stortorvet towards Vaterland over Grønland. In 1900, the tram shifted to electric operation, and was expanded towards Oslo Hospital, a psychiatric clinic. It was also established a branch line from Schweigaards gate, that ran towards Vålerenga over Galgeberg. In 1921, a tram depot with place for ten cars was built. The line was in 1932 extended to Helsfyr. In 1960, the Gamleby Line-section over Grønland was replaced with a more effective stretch that ran in Biskop Gunnerus' gate and Schweigaards gate. The Vålerenga Line was finally closed in 1968.
