    Rubber Nose

    resund trains are operated by both DSB and SJ (Swedish class X31K). These "rubber noses" link Malm and Copenhagen over the bridge every 20 minutes, but also go on further into Sweden and Denmark. Although celebrated as "flexible" these things are far from that. Always...

    Not a bad spot... ;-)

    Probably my favourite spot on my recent holiday (although there were many other great ones :)): on top of Stockholm town hall tower! SJ X2000 high speed train is leaving Stockholm Central Station down South to Gteborg as train 441 at 16:10 over the bridge North of the historic city center...
