- Roslagsbanan is a small narrow gauge commuter rail line in the Greater Stockholm area of Sweden. This video showcases some sections of the network and its trains including the old x10p and the new trains coming to the line soon x15p build by Stadler

May be of interest for some viewers that Roslagsbanan (in part) was the the first railway to be electrified. And that Djursholms Ösby at one point was Europes (maybe even the worlds) busiest station based on the number of trains passing.
Intresting! Thanks for sharing 😀
Ye i was thinking about the electrical thing. There is this really really old picture of the Täby centrum station from the 1900 where tgere is like a small red house and a locomotive.
A very nice video from my hometown about Roslagsbanan. The new X15 had som trouble in the beginning. But now it works just fine 😎
The X15P trains really resemble the Capricorn from Rhaetian Railways very much
Yup, its based on the same platform
Did they replace the wooden board rail crossing at Stockholm Ö, depot area? If they dont, its over 70 years old. Btw the Stockholm Ö station is the oldest building in the trains system
I just see 🇨🇭 when watching the new stadler-untits🥰
1:00 Just a note here: in rush traffic the trains will be grouped with 5-6 cars
Always 6, 5 car trains are not possible
the proposal of extending the line towards T-centralen is a good idea but it'd require a 4 km tunnel & would cost quite a lot of money, which is why I'm personally very against it. Also, T-centralen is already quite saturated and bringing in additional influx of people isn't ideal. However I do recognize the need of extending the line towards the city center: but a more indirect route should be chosen so that the line can be built on surface. Since these trains are narrower, they could also potentially travel alongside car-traffic, like a tram, in order to reach the city center.
The route was chosen to maximize systemic effect which is the way to go in my opinion.
Also, I don’t think running it on the street would work very well either, as SL has been working for a very long time to move Roslagsbansn away from light rail territory and more towards being a full on commuter rail line by closing smaller stations and building more double track. It would also reduce the lines capacity and speed.
how centimetre is this gauge??
It's 891 mm.
var första vid djursholms ösby?
Yes just a little walk down the line towards Näsby
This gives me Japanese vibes
Why? 😭☠️
