Sorry for my confusion
I will be in Flam and have gone on the vy.no website looking for tickets for the Flam Railway
All I find when I search is the R45 train
ChatGPT says this isnt the Flam Railway but a public train
can some one please advise what I am doing wrong?
I only want to go one way to Myrdal but the Norway best site says it has round trip tickets for the Railway but no one way
I am losing my mind
Any help is appreciated

can some one please advise what I am doing wrong?
You're trusting ChatGPT, that's what you're doing wrong.
www.vy.no is the correct place.
I will be in Flam
How do you arrive there?
Never trust ChatGPT (just American no-quality software), always trust vy.no website.
This is my trip so far:
Train from Bergen to Voss
Bus 950 to Gudvangen
Naerofjord ride to Flam
I want to take the Flam Railroad to Myrdal and then train back to Bergen
I don't know how
Thanks for the advice
I am not a ChatGPT person but I don't want to buy the wrong ticket

Bergen
Then you visit www.vy.no and search for ticket from Flåm to Bergen, and you will see the options. Make sure to book a trip with a connection in Myrdal.
that is my confusion
When I go to vy.no it gives me the option to buy the R45 train to get from Flam to Myrdal
Is that train the Flam Railway?
If not how do I book the railway?
Every rail line in Norway has a route number. The Flam Railway isn't a private tourist railway- although most of the traffic is now tourists (NiN and cruise ships), it is one of the public railways of the country.
All Flamsbana trains convey local people as well as tourists.
There are several wayside stations on the route which serve the locals.
Thus R45 is just the route number of the railway. Many, if not most of the public railways in Norway also have names (like the Flamsbana) as well as their route numbers.
Norway's best is just a re-seller, selling mainly tourist packages so they either want to sell you a return ticket or a single ticket as part of the Norway in a Nutshell package (both at enhanced price)
Vy-no is the right place to buy a single ticket for the line at face value.
The line was originally built to replace the old horse track down to Flam, but was only actually completed by the German Army of Occupation during WW2.
PS- Also book this as a through ticket from Flam to Bergen, not as separate tickets.
thank you!
