Around 8 years ago I left my passport, laptop and money in one of the lockers at Stockholm station. A few hours later I tried to retrieve my stuff but my digital key wouldn't work due to leaving it as unoccupied (it's a complicated). Anyway the security opened the locker and all my stuff was missing, so I was without a passport, or laptop and a wallet and I reported it to the police and embassy. A few hours later whilst walking through the station, the security guards recognised me and told me that someone who had opened the supposedly locked locker and had handed in all my stuff to the railway office. I shall never forget that day and truly appreciate the honesty and trust of that unknown swedish man. It's people like that which shines a good light on your country.

Same sort of thing happened to me. About 3 years ago, I left my phone in Basel, Switzerland. It was in the middle of a public area and I couldn't use find my iPhone as my phone didn't have an international data plan. I put my phone on lost mode and texted it instructions to return the phone in both English and German. I then filed a lost items report to the metro police. The next day, I got a mail saying that they had my phone. I went to the police precinct and was able to safely retrieve my phone. I'm eternally grateful for the the hospitality of European cities.

I have actually ridden this train a couple of times, although only southbound from Umeå . I have ridden both sleeper carrriges and couchettes, even ridden the seating carrige once, which was horrible..Espscially since that was before the Botnia line was built, or rather during the building works for that line., which ment the branch to Umeå was closed and SJ hadn't done a proper job of ordering rail replacement buses. And by the way, that dining car is from the 80's. The Arctic Circle Train is actually a franchised service,, the coaching stock is mainly leased to SJ from the Transport Administration, which carries a silver-red livery. Any other liveries that may appear in the sleeper trains (i. e. the black locomotive and the all-red dining car) signals that said carridge is part of SJ's own fleet.

I use this product whenever I travel around the region myself, I know it's very popular (often the Lounge seats will sell out before the regular cabin), and it could be interesting to your viewers. Even the regular cabin in these buses is very nice, actually.

Here in Australia when you hear "sleeper train" you automatically think of the 2-4 day trips on things like the Ghan, Indian Pacific, Spirit of Queensland or Spirit of the Outback. They're the sort of thing you plan an entire holiday around, hop on board and then either fly back or wait a week for the next one (which limits the flexibility of how long you can spend wherever you ended up). The short-distance sleeper trains in Europe seem amazing because they're so cheap and depart so often you can easily just take one back whenever you like.

Incredible pricing for this trip! Only 800 SEK?

I did this route April 1 1974 after 18 hrs of travel from Zurich to Stockholm in coach ... no showers on the train back then, but I did have a little sink in the sleeper room, I then travelled 6 more hrs by bus from Narvik to Tromso

Decor in the dinner car was 80's warped ideas! Orange is for healing and yellow is mind control 😎 sunny time.

This looks amazing! Way better than what America can provide for us. The Amtrak train is terrible. And you all have a great food selection! AMAZING!

Thank you so much for this amazing video. This is one of the most beautiful journeys so far. And I must confess that I'm darkgreen with envy (In the good, not the bad way!). Carry on and enjoy all your trips!

I wanted to do this too, but after enjoying this video I’m satisfied without needing to experience it in person
