The railway was originally built for freight traffic starting in 1923. It was intended to transport freight from the Bergen Railway in Myrdal to Flam on the Sognefjord, which was accessible by ship year-round. The railway was completed in 1936, and freight traffic began with steam locomotives.

Passenger service began in 1941. The line was not fully electrified until 1944.

In recent times, however, the line has become increasingly important for tourist traffic. A special highlight is the gradient of 5.5 per thousand for a standard gauge line and the stop at the Kjosfossen waterfall, between two tunnels.

End and start station of the Flam Railway. The museum is open daily from 11:00 am. The train ride is worth it. You can also take a ride and then hike back.
