Yes! My homecountry! I hope there will be more cab rides from Sweden. FYI, the reason the train is going via Trollhättan is that all the catenary is curently being replaced. The phase between Stenungsund and Uddevalla is almost complete.

A beautiful Swedish line! I knew the Gothenburg-Stromstad route but only on paper. Why there is no direct connection to the Norwegian city of Halden or directly to Sarpsborg I have never understood. The line runs through the whole of Vastra-Gotaland, passing through the Gote Alv valley and runs there at full speed, then after Trollhattan it deviates and you can see the Swedish countryside mixed with rocks, woods and wheat fields. The arrival in the Stromstad bay is spectacular. One of the most beautiful videos! Congratulations on this Scandinavian trip! If you come back it would be nice to also do the Gothenburg Malmo or the line to Kalmar that runs through the woods! Thank you so much!

Thanks for the pleasant train journey. The detour led to the train traversing three railway lines instead of one (Norge-/Vänerbanan, Älvsborgsbanan, Bohusbanan). It's regrettable that the stretch from Strömstad to Norway wasn't constructed. The proposed railway bridge over the Iddefjord wasn't realized. However, the construction of the two Svinesund road bridges significantly facilitates Norway's border crossings into Sweden.
@RailRelaxationАй бұрын
@heinerle456 I agree that the proposed railway bridge to continue the stretch to Norway would be very nice. I found the journey very interesting. This trio was my first railway trip to Sweden. I will definitely go back, who knows, during the winter.

Thank you for this video and for all infos given. Nice cab ride In a globally sunny day. From a Swedish cab rider, I know several rides in this country, but this one was unknown to me. Sweden has very beautiful landscapes and so far trees have always been, well, represented. Very nice views over the "Marina" at the end and as for the ferry, I found it, "very small" for this little CITY. Good week end for all.

I used to drive the trains Gothenburg - Strömstad for six years up until last year. Always a nice drive! The locals were in general just happy that the trains were still running so basically any delay was just met with a smile and "no worries!". I Also had a tree fall over the catenary line in a snow storm, on the spot at 53:59. I came around the curve doing 90 km/h and seeing virtually nothing until it was just a hundred meters up ahead. That was the last of that nights driving. 😄 Had to evacuate to a bus and spend the night drying my socks and shoes on the radiator of a hotel room in Uddevalla instead of sleeping upstairs in the station house of Strömstad. A funny thing about Tanum. One of the dispatchers who regularly works the station is a real metalhead. Long hair, beard and always a band t-shirt of some sort*. Another funny dispatcher is a lady working in Strömstad. It is almost mandatory to have a coffee with her in the station house upon arrival. I also encountered the very lovable dog belonging to the dispatcher in Munkedal. The dog was quietly sleeping just below the signal board only to look up and come and great me as I entered the dispatchers office. A lot of great memories! :) *The train dispatchers in Sweden are not required to wear uniforms.

The Öresundstog trainsets are wrongly labelled MF/ET X31K. The "ET" and "X31K" class designations are correct, but "MF" is not. MF is only used for the Danish IC3 trains which have a similar rubber-nose front, but are otherwise completely different. The Öresundstog trainsets are mainly based on the Bombardier Regina trains, but with an IC3 front part. The manufacturer named them "Contessa" to signifiy the relationship to the "Regina" trains.
@RailRelaxationАй бұрын
@wasmic5z Thank you very much for your correction. And I apologize for the mistakes I have made.
@ZvonimirZelenikaАй бұрын
I remember traveling on Oresund trains in early 2000s and they did look very much like IC3/IR4 trains, but now I realize they are really different - MF are articulated with Jacobs bogies between the cars, while ET/X31K has two standard bogies on each car, though this front "rubber nose" really makes it hard to see the difference as it's such a unique (and very clever) feature. Thank You for the correction. 👍
