Locomotives on Roslagsbanan (1993) (Narrow gauge)

[@steffanmaximum]

I came across Ostra station on a visit to Stockholm about 7 years ago. I didn't know anything about the Roslagsbanan, but was immediately enchanted with this railway. Unfortunately I didn't have the time to travel on these lines. It must have been a joy to work on this system, and, as a driver on British Rail for 40 years I would have gladly swapped places. Sorry about my lack of Swedish, but much love from England to the people of Sweden.

Hello colleague! Really fun that you visit Sweden, what trains did you ride? Yes Roslagsbanan is a really nice train with good nature outside of the window😄

We took the Arlanda Express from the airport into Stockholm [very expensive]. Then after 4 days we caught an intercity train from Stockholm to Copenhagen. If we manage another trip to Sweden, I shall ride the Rolagsbanan.I've watched several cab view videos, but it's not the same.@@SwedishRailcam

Should you ever come back to the Stockholm area I must recommend an excursion to the neighboring city of Uppsala where you can find Sweden's longest heritage railway, Lennakatten. 33km of amazing narrow gauge history, having once been a part of the same railway network as Roslagsbanan. Both steam and diesel locomotives run regularly during the summer months, operated by the heritage society SRJmf.

@@Raketmannen Thank you for the info. We do hope to visit Sweden again at some point, as we only explored Stockholm, which is such a clean city compared to London.

Härlig video med gamla kollegor. Jag som rattar tåget i första sekvensen....."runt" 75 blås genom Rydbo! Kolla gärna in rådjuret som hade änglavakt! ;-)

[@SwedishRailcam]

Tack Kalle! Kul att du var den som körde och ja det där rådjuret hade minst sagt änglavakt. Hade kunnat bli en blodig början på denna film om den inte vänt om i sista stund :P

God Jul och Gott Nytt År! Tack för en utomordentlig video. Har många minnen från tiden 1974-78 på sträckan Stockholm Östra-Rimbo.

Liebe Filmer! Das ist ein wunderbares Stück Geschichte :-))) Wir haben hier in Österreich auch so alte Lokomotiven in einem Freilichtmuseum! Da hat der Motor 180 cm Durchmesser!!! Ich sende Euch herzliche Grüße aus Bad Vöslau in Niederösterreich!

I filmed there two years earlier.

Underbart! Stort TACK! Inga tyristorer här inte!

Den gamla videon togs någon gång i maj 1993 då loktåget trafikerade s.k Österskärsdirektan! Det sista ordinarie loktåget gick den 10 juni samma år.
