How many train routes does Vy run?
9 of the routes in this atlas are Vy services, covering 1,441 km across 1 country (Norway). That is what this atlas draws, not the operator's whole network — a national railway runs thousands of local services no map of notable journeys would list.
What is the fastest Vy train?
The Vestfoldbanen, Eidsvoll to Skien, at up to 200 km/h. Its fastest scheduled run takes 2 h 52 min over 242 km.
Does Vy run night trains?
Not in this atlas. All 9 Vy routes listed here are daytime services.
When was Vy founded?
Wikidata records the company's inception as 1996, and files it as a business. The oldest railway it runs over in this atlas opened in 1854 — the line and the company are rarely the same age, and this page dates both.
