Route
The Grorud Line branches from the Common Tunnel at Tøyen, and runs first northwards and then north-east. The line serves the northern part of Groruddalen, which is predominantly an apartment housing area built from the 1950s though the 1970s. It runs through both the boroughs of Bjerke and Grorud. From Carl Berners plass to Ensjø, there is a single-tracked branch, which allows trains access to the other eastern lines without having to change direction.

Famous quotes containing the word route:
“By a route obscure and lonely,
Haunted by ill angels only,
Where an eidolon, named Night,
On a black throne reigns upright,
I have reached these lands but newly
From an ultimate dim Thule—
From a wild weird clime that lieth, sublime,
Out of space—out of time.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
“In the mountains the shortest route is from peak to peak, but for that you must have long legs. Aphorisms should be peaks: and those to whom they are spoken should be big and tall of stature.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“no arranged terror: no forcing of image, plan,
or thought:
no propaganda, no humbling of reality to precept:
terror pervades but is not arranged, all possibilities
of escape open: no route shut,”
—Archie Randolph Ammons (b. 1926)
