I created a charity fundraiser to support Stand Against Racism & Inequality (SARI), so that my local area can show that it stands above the small number of people who wish to divide us.

If you could please share widely, it would be much appreciated.

🇸🇪 Lysvik

This is the final station I'm ticking off on this line. Now it's time for a nice relaxing evening!

🇸🇪 Rottneros

This one didn't go well! At the end of a near-hour walk, the bridge to the station was closed due to structural issues. This required a 50-minute detour to reach the other side. We missed the train we intended to get as a result.

🇸🇪 Öjervik

There was an amazing frozen lake here that we went for a walk on. There was a race track carved out on the lake that people had been racing cars on.

🇸🇪 Oleby

The station south of Torsby, we alighted here and waited for the train to come and pick us up again.

🇸🇪 Kolsnäs

A little station just outside Sunne that has a water park next to it. I don't think this is the weather for the water park, though. 🥶

It's bus time! Riding the 200 bus which runs between Torsby and Sunne on a similar route to the railway line.

🇸🇪 Torsby

End of the line! It's a nice town, it has everything someone could need.

🇸🇪 Edsbjörke

This is a small remote station on the line between Kil and Torsby. The original station north of the level crossing is now a private residence.

🇸🇪 Sunne

Went to Sunne for food, had that famous Swedish dish...pizza. 🤔

Couldn't resist another easy station tick. It's also nice to see that bus-train connections here are good, with buses regularly waiting for trains.

Trollywood!

I walked part of the old Trollhättan industrial railway from the works complex. This would've been used to connect to the former locomotive works here.

*Not an active railway, disconnected from the rail network.

This morning, I visited the Saab Museum in Trollhättan. This city was the home of Saab, an interesting car brand that is sadly no longer with us.

I had a great time looking around the museum at their exhibits.

🇸🇪 Trollhättan C

Today I'm exploring the city of Trollhättan, and ticking off the station in doing so.
February 17, 2026 at 12:27 PM
I saw a locomotive shunting carriages at Kil station this morning, then hopped on a train to take me south on today's adventure.

🇸🇪 Kil

A long journey up from Göteborg up to Kil onboard this comfortable X55 train. It has the same seats the British Class 175 and 180 trains.
February 16, 2026 at 3:40 PM
What appears to be a single-car training tram travelling through the centre of Göteborg.
February 16, 2026 at 3:35 PM
I took a short ride on one of the trams in Göteborg, from Liseberg station into the city centre.

Ticketing is via an app or contactless onboard the tram.
February 16, 2026 at 3:33 PM
🇸🇪 Kållered

A quick change here between the staggered platforms to head back towards Göteborg.
February 16, 2026 at 3:28 PM
🇸🇪 Liseberg

An underground station, with platform edge doors that aren't directly by the edge of the platform so there are effectively two corridors; one behind the screens and one between the screens and the platform edge.

Also, very nice tile patterns!
February 16, 2026 at 3:24 PM
🇸🇪 Mölndal

A bit of spontaneous station ticking, beginning with Mölndal. This station offers connections with the Göteborg tram network.
February 16, 2026 at 3:21 PM
🇸🇪 Ängelholm

Rather than wait an hour in the cold at Båstad, going back one stop and then doubling back once again seemed like a better idea!
February 16, 2026 at 11:19 AM
🇸🇪 Båstad

Randomly chosen station to tick off for very mature reasons, obviously.
February 16, 2026 at 9:31 AM
🇸🇪 Persborg

Time to head back into the centre of Malmö, this time from Persborg station. I had planned to also tick off nearby Rosengard station but I never got around to it.
