Summary

[edit]
Description

Stockholm's main airport, Arlanda, is around 40 kms north of the city centre and was connected up to the rail network in the late 1990s. There are two routes and three stations.

Arlanda Centralstation is on the loop off and back on to the main Stockholm to Uppsala line. This is served by SL Commuter trains, private operators Upptåget and Mälartåg with long distance SJ services picking up northbound and setting down southbound.

Branching off the loop is a short dead end line with two stations - Arlanda Södra (south) and Arlanda Norra (north). These are served exclusively by private operator Arlanda Express. Charging premium fares like London's Heathrow Express fortunately is valid with the InterRail pass which I was travelling on for this trip. Otherwise a round trip was SEK579 (approx £47/€55) for the 18 minute journey.

Typically, Arlanda Norra was like almost every other airport station built in the last few decades - spacious and no natural daylight. I skipped taking a photo there and instead took one on arrival back at Stockholm Centralstation. Not much better, but these were the only opportunity to get photos of one of their 7 unique GEC Alsthom 4-car units. Unit X3 3 having arrived in on train 7827, 11:05 Arlanda Norra to Stockholm Centralstation.
