In addition to modern trains that traffic the entire country, we also offer numerous departures and an extensive network that will safely deliver you to your destination. SJ High-speed trains These trains travel between major cities at high speed. The on board bistro sells meals, sandwiches, coffee and other beverages. 1st Class travel includes breakfast. Lunch or dinner can be pre-ordered. Wifi is available on board, plus an electrical socket at every seat. SJ high-speed trains also traffic Copenhagen and Oslo (Oslo as of August 2015). SJ InterCity trains/SJ Regional trains An excellent value alternative, stopping at more stations en route. Refreshments are available on board. There is an electrical socket at every seat. SJ’s regional trains offer swift and comfortable travel on shorter routes. SJ Night trains A night on the train saves an overnight stay in a hotel and is a wonderful way of utilising the travel time. You can choose between a berth in a couchette, a berth in a sleeping car, or 1st Class travel in a sleeping compartment. There is a bistro on board certain trains. The night train travels north to the ski resorts in Jämtland in north-west Sweden or to Europe’s last wilderness in Lapland, Sweden’s most northern province. The train stops at the foot of the mountains where you embark refreshed and ready to explore. Night train routes Stockholm – Östersund/Åre Göteborg – Östersund/Åre Malmö – Stockholm Stockholm – Luleå/Kiruna/Narvik Göteborg – Luleå/Kiruna/Narvik Arctic Circle Pass If you decide to travel all the way to Lapland, you can buy the Arctic Circle Pass. It’s a flexible card that offers unlimited travel for 3 days. The Arctic Circle Pass allows you to hop on and off trains along what is quite possibly Sweden’s most scenic train route, Kiruna – Narvik. The train stops at 14 places including Abisko, Björkliden, Vassijaure, Riksgränsen, Bjørnfjell, Søsterbekk and Katterat. The route is trafficked twice daily in each direction. This is where you can experience the Northern Lights or Midnight Sun, depending on the season. 5 4725_SJ_Sweden_by_train_2015_A5_150211_ENG.indd 4-5 2015-02-18 16:56 Riksgränsen Narvik Björkliden Abisko Practical information Kiruna Gällivare Porjus Buy and book tickets Our website is available in English at sj.se/english.
