I 1897 (attennittisju):
> Om sommeren var det forbindelse inn i Sverige, for da gikk det nattog mellom #Storlien og #Stockholm, og det kjørte så raskt at det tok igjen morgentoget et eller annet sted langt inne i Sverige. Og enda bedre, om sommeren hadde dette togparet en gjennomgående sovevogn mellom #Trondheim og Stockholm to dager i uka.
Direkte #nattog mellom Trondheim og Stockholm hadde vært noe!
Right then!
Record attempt: Longest train journey in the EU is live!

Finland supposedly wants to build standard gauge tracks from Haparanda 🇸🇪 as far as Misi (half way between Rovaniemi and Kemijärvi) for military purposes https://yle.fi/a/74-20244260
I *still* don't get the point
*Surely* development of dual gauge freight wagons would be an easier way to do this? 🤔
