1899? 1900?

[edit]

The most recent edit replaced the year 1899 with 1900 with respect to the opening of the Rodeløkka Line (Which should be linked..?). Template:Sinsen Line still says 1899. Geschichte (talk) 13:04, 5 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Both Aspenberg in Trikker og frostadsbaner i Oslo and the article in Lokaltrafikk says 27 March 1900, so I would tend to think that is correct. Oslotrikken on their web site claims 1899, but has the very ambiguous sentence "1899: Kristiania Sproveisselskab (the Green Tram) converts to electric traction. Kristiania Municipality established their own tram company and builds lines to Sagene, Vippetangen and Rodeløkka". KKS was founded in 1899, but I would think they used more than a year to build all the lines. Arsenikk (talk) 14:16, 5 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Aker

[edit]

"The line will receive a station serving Aker University Hospital". Hasn't Aker just received the red light, being closed down in the near future? Geschichte (talk) 08:36, 5 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

City planning in Oslo seems to be a complete mess, with the one short-term plan contradicting the other. Tram building in the capital is so slow that by the time Ruter gets around to building a tram line to Aker, the hospital will most probably be closed. On the other hand, I have to just follow the latest plans from Ruter (November 2009), which seem to be out of date six months later. Further complicating matters, no-one seems to now knows when the line will be built or the hospital closed. Arsenikk (talk) 11:43, 5 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
