Stockholm-Oslo trains back on track

 

Starting next month, full rail service between Stockholm and Oslo will be back, after five years of reduced service caused by major track work. Five trains a day each way will serve the route, with three of them expresses.

Because of the work, service has been limited to two trains some days, and one or none on others. One goal of the expanded service is to draw passengers between the two cities off planes and onto the trains to reduce carbon emissions.

Last month, in a joint study by Swedish and Norwegian transport authorities, it was estimated that enhanced high-speed service between the two capitals could reduce journeys by plane by up to half a million a year.

The best part of every trip is realizing that it has upset your expectations
