Album Info:Since liberalisation of the Swedish railway market in 2001, new operators took up business in Sweden. The passenger market became divided into two markets: The remains of the Swedisch state operator SJ covers the mainlines and local and commuter operators are privat or community owned. In the cargo market Green Cargo, the former SJ cargo division, became under the umbrella of the finance department. New privat and other state owned operators took up business oportunities in the industrie, forest and trade market through winning more and more contracts. A four day trip brought me around the southern part of Sweden. Information by Wikipedia and many Swedish company mentioned and other sources, Newest pictures are first, rest is grouped by class and operator.

Two X2 - SJ AB, Sweden
Title:  Two X2 - SJ AB, Sweden
Description:  X2 is the Swedish high speed tilting train system operated by SJ (Swedish Railways). It has a top commercial speed of 200 kph / 120 mph, but has reached 276 kph / 171 mph in a test. The reason the X2 was chosen was that Sweden has very curved railways, and not enough traffic to justify building special high-speed railway lines. As a result, a Swedish tilting train had to be developed.
