 The many activities in support of the Year included exhibitions, cultural tours, school projects and, especially at the local level, incentives for the creation of a wide variety of Wikipedia articles on local history and culture.One of the special projects was centred on Bergensbanen, the Oslo to Bergen railway, which celebrated its centenary in 2009.Memory institutions were working with railway enthusiasts and the Norwegian Railway Museum to provide opportunities for towns and villages along the line to investigate how the railway affected their communities.
