Photographer's Note
Another old photo taken in 1984 while on my way to Bergen. This building is an extension of a railway station. It houses several bars, gift shop, restaurant, and maybe has accommodation too. Located about midway between Oslo & Bergen. I hope somebody can identify the exact location. For now I'm listing it under Bergen.
The ride between Oslo & Bergen is truly one of the best if not the best railway ride one could take. Spectacular & dramatic sceneries all the way through. I highly recommend this ride to Bergen if you happen to be in Oslo. It passes through many rustic & quaint timbered tunnels (if I'm not mistaken). The construction of the railway was itself a historic engineering achievement for its time. Thanks for looking.
PP: Cloned out mold spots & scratch marks mostly in the sky (photo was scanned from negative). Played with level but it would not come out right. Very little post processing was done except for small s-curve adjustment & sharpening. I actually reduced the contrast to bring back the atmosphere of the original scan.

Hi Latiff,
it´s not true ;D the wagon with its little chimneys doesn´t fit into the house ?
Anyway, amazing, nice idea to get off the train directly into a warm room.
Good one, christian

Hi Latiff,
at first, congratulations for posting this very old picture. I think there is some kind of romantism hidden in those film photos. Your scan work is really good. Very difficult to get the result you present in here. Take a look at the ws I've made. I hope you like it. Well done!
Regards,
Carlos

Assalamualaikum Latiff,
Its a long way back to the day you shot this. This is surely bringing memories of the 'tougher' and 'costlier' photography days. I am thankful to start serious learning on beauty of photography in these digital days...
Please accept my apology that I cannot comment much about the shot, since I am really a beginner, and photojournalism was a big, big thing in my learning process. I am still trying my best to learn to see and understand why and how a shot be a good shot. :) Simple thing I understand, I love beautiful shots... and this shot is one of them. I liked this, Latiff especially with the great note to complement it.
Salam,
Ramdan.

Hey Latiff,
A great photo, meaningful and special. You dont get to see something like this every day. Very nicely composed. Its also has that nostalgic, oldie feeling to it.
Enjoy
