Description

The railway that extends from Kirkenes to Bjørnevatn has had both steam locomotives, electrical and diesel-powered trains running along the tracks with their cargo of ore. The engine shed, where the wagons and other things were repaired, is situated at Førstevann, near the centre of Kirkenes. The large hall is built of reinforced concrete with an arched cavity roof. Towards the east and the main road the entire wall is made of glass, divided up into vertical rectangular panes.
