When I took the train in 2023 (other direction) the dining car was quite busy! No big meals though, I guess I had a sandwich. For breakfast I went to a cafe in the centralstation.
I've been considering taking the night train up north for ages, just never get around to it (it's kinda expensive after all, plus the stay in the north and maybe car rental etc and trip back home) I grew up traveling A LOT in the far north of Scandinavia, traveling around by road (caravan vacations), so the far north is my childhood stomping grounds XD I live close to Gothenburg so it was quite the journey too. I've heard a lot of good reviews both old and new when it comes to our Swedish sleeper trains, they're known for their comfort and facilities. When I was younger and before everyone had computers and internet with them all the time, the sleepers from Gothenburg (yes, they started in Gothenburg back then) to the far north, even had a cinema car on the train! What surprises me the most about this video is that you went to Luleå instead of going all the way to Narvik! You honestly missed the best part of the total journey as the views are absolutely stunning once you get past Kiruna and head into the Kiruna mountains and the train tracks are very close to the tall mountains and you can see the highest peak of Sweden at times, have a view over Torne Träsk lake and then some amazing scenery once in Norway. It's such a beautiful place in the mountains, I've travelled to Narvik both my train and car, though by train only from Abisko, Björkliden or Riksgränsen (small but rather famous locations in the mountains for skiing or hiking) I'd even go as far as saying Malmbanan (between Kiruna and Narvik) is the most scenic and impressive piece of railroad we have in Sweden, and it gets even more scenic once crossing the border to Norway. Narvik is also the northernmost town you can travel to by train in Europe, or possibly even the world
Thanks for sharing! I only went to Luleå on this trip as I was continuing on to Finland :) Don't worry though I did Narvik- Stockholm southbound last December so will make that video later on the year ☃️
We took the portion all the way to Narvik last Autumn. No en-suite rooms on that portion but still exceptionally comfortable. An incredible trip that I'll never forget.
@@NonstopEurotrip Certainly wasn't when we took it. The en-suite rooms were on the Lulea portion only. Just the two second class sleeper cars when we took it. Wasn't even the option to book en-suite. No reduction in comfort though.
Lift integrated into the coach: I recently travelled by train here at home (Canada), and rode one of the newest trains VIA operates. On the way to the platform, the employee was telling me about the new integrated lifts, and he was speaking as if they were the best thing since sliced bread. When we got to the coach, they had to go get the manual lift, since the integrated one wouldn't deploy haha To anyone reading this and who needs a lift to get onboard: I am not writing this to discourage you from travelling. I was able to board using the "old fashioned" method, it was just funny to see the employee be so enthusiastic about something that, on that day, turned out to be out of order.
Yep - totally endorse Airalo. Used in South Korea in March (absolutely brilliant) and will be doing the same in Pakistan in October. Another very entertaining and informative vlog - keep it up! 👍👍
Thanks for an interesting video travelling through an area I have visited. When I stayed in Lulea in APRIL a few years ago, the sea was still totally frozen over!
The WL4 type coach you travelled in are among the last passenger coaches ever delivered new to SJ - delivered in 1990-92. The very last ones were the similar 2nd class WL6 ones, with the last one deliveried in 1994.
Great video! I just love when you’re in the dining cart and are impressed over the prices and how affordable it is whilst hearing a man in the background mutter over how expensive he thinks it is (in swedish) 😂
Great trip. It's great you doing this trip on Spring, since you can see the scenery more longer than on winter, but the consequences is you have few hours to sleep.
There are some LiDL nearby if you want cheap food, but a cooling bag is needed. If you book the private car, you can use the drainage as a icebath for food and drinks.
From December, SJ is taking over the contract for 1 year with an additional year option, and they say the pricing is going down, so hopefully it will be a better price/performance ratio than today
@@killerkt9 Finland? The area that belonged to Sweden for several hundred years? Also, if you ask the inbreds who live in Lappland, most of them would rather be their own state then belong to any other country.
Can you once try to do the Italian Adriatic line Taranto Rimini? I did it once and you can see the Adriatic Sea for almost the entire journey, for me it was beautiful
I took the first class sleeper with my family, from Narvik to Hudiksval, but basically the same train as you from Boden onwards. Plus many Overnights across major Scandinavian cities.
I was sitting on an overnight train from Oslo to Trondheim, and then I continued with a morning train from Trondheim to Bodo. The total journey trip from Oslo to Bodo was around 20 hours including transit in Trondheim. After a night in Bodo, I crossed by ferry to Lofoten Islands. It was the last half of my overland trip from Rotterdam, the first half was spent on buses.
Honestly I dont see how you could see those extremely steep prices for the tickets as good value. Especially considering that before VY took over the contract, SJ ran the trains and offered much lower fares on the same route. The increased fares have also caused much fewer people to take the night train and instead opt for flights to get between Stockholm and the far north. Thankfully Vy's contract is being terminated early and SJ is taking over once again by the end of the year. I just hope it means the lower prices will be reinstated. Paying nearly 100 euros for couchette compared to the 70 euros it was when SJ operated it 5 years ago is criminal. Not to mention 70 euros was the most expensive it got, purchased last minute, not the starting price! A standard sleeper could go up to 160 euros but could be sold for as little as 78 euros all the way from Stockholm to Narvik!
And don´t forget how Vy completely manhandles the train. Never clean, always late, no food or water, broken toilets and cancelled more often then running. And of course late when it runs. Vy and the norwegian goverment who owns Vy should get invaded for this.
A small tidbit that might be worth it for you especially. If you travel with SJ most of the larger swedish stations has a small lounge area that is free (only seen Malmö and Stockholm Lounge but I think there is one at least in Göteborg too). It is almost like a lounge area for when you are flying. You can get free wifi, seating, electricity at your seating, basic ammenities and at least in Stockholm Central you can get some small finger sandwiches and juice. Not worth to purchase a ticket just for that, but first class does have some nicer seats with electricity wider width and even complimentary breakfast if you travel before like 10 in the morning. Well worth it and I think not enough people speak about it because their ticket prices are not that bad for first class. When I traveled Lund-Umeå a lot I think I often paid only 200 SEK extra on a ticket that cost like 1200 SEK anyways. Of course this was often off season and I booked well in advance but still. Very worth it. Not seen any train entiushiast channels talk about this yet and I think its honestly one of the nicest parts about traveling by train within swedish borders.
When I went to Kiruna and Kebnekaise (Swedens tallest mountain) I went in the seated car on the same train but an even longer journey and it was fine. I got lucky as I was able to have a vacant seat next to me but my mates that didn’t had a way worse journey than me. On the way back to Stockholm we had to switch trains in Boden and our seats were occupied so we got a free couchette upgrade from Kiruna but they hadn’t changed duvets so we couldn’t sleep in there and it was pretty dirty overall. I met a new friend tho so it was fine :)
I don't think I'd ever ride a train for fun. It would always be an ordeal to be endured. However, if I was traveling, I could imagine it might be the least bad option. Both in comfort and affordability. I don't like to drive in foreign countries so it could be more comfortable than driving. It could also be affordable, avoiding the need for a rental car and a hotel room.

SJ will be taking over the night train service from december 2024 since the contract between Trafikverket and VY is ending this year. SJ previously had the night train service between 2012 to 2020 until VY took over. Fun fact when SJ had the night train service it started from Gothenburg instead of Stockholm, with SJ taking over it seems likely the night train will start from Gothenburg again.
Nice sleeper. Love a dining car experience on a train. Sadly, they've all gone from Irish trains.. How can you go to Sweden and not mention the coffee? Best I've had anywhere. Free refills too at café's. Much better than the coffee flavoured frothy milk you get in most places these day.. Was your dinner included in the price, as a sleeper passenger, like it is on the new(ish) premium Italian sleeper from Rome to the Dolomites?
@@NonstopEurotrip You should avoid coffee and tea on airplanes because the hot water boiler, from whence the hot water for your tea and coffee come, is never cleaned out.
You kinda overpaid on the ticket but its fine, SJ likes to drive prices but what i can advise is look around on the sites SJ not often offers the best prices and VY also can rocket the prices up
Yes, administratively speaking, Luleå is in Norrbotten County, not Lapland County. However, Luleå is generally considered a part of the cultural region of Sàpmi, which historically was called Lapland. So when you see "Swedish Lapland" mentioned in tourism marketing, they're talking about that region, not the county.
I heard that Vy is pulling out of this service because it's unprofitable. As an interim operator SJ will run the train with the same rolling stock until a new operator is found. On long term the question is though what will come after when the current rolling stock gets old.
We in effect did this route in reverse from Gallivare to Stockholm. As you said, it was very comfortale and we both slept very well. Also being over six (6) feet tall, I was NOT cramped for space in the upper berth
@@hongjayteo5451 it is not about Shizuoka I think The Prime Minister Fumio Kishida is already talking to the Shizuoka Prefecture Officials.This Route is from Shinagawa to Nagoya.
For me it was the worst night travel ever. The train is (de)accelerating the whole night, because it stops at every hamlet with a train station en route.
It just shows how far the U.K. railways are lagging so far behind with a total lack of real innovation and vision - as a wider overhaul of the current SailRail product offering, an overnight sleeper train from Hull via Leeds and Manchester Victoria to Holyhead is needed - or are they really waiting for the high speed rail tunnel under the Irish Sea from Holyhead to Dublin to get built first? Perhaps the plans by the Irish government to comply with the EU climate change directives and ban all short-haul flights between Europe, the U.K. and Ireland will be a good thing and a blessing in disguise, if it means better rail and ferry connections between Ireland and the U.K., including if Isle of Man Ferries decides to offer direct sailings from their new terminal in Liverpool to Dublin
Another great video apart from the overuse of that ubiquitous USA born term "super" in front of verbs. Best to vary with words such as really, very, amazingly, incredibly, exceptionally, extremely etc etc etc. Super is lazy and just gets repetitive and is dumbing down the English language. I find it super annoying ;-)
I travelled from Hamburg to Stockholm last summer. The train was over 7 hours late. In fact, all but one of our Scandinavian trains were either very late or not running - I'm not doing Scandinavia by train again!
Never had that experience, only time ive experienced a significant delay was when a snowstorm hit together with a freight train derailing. 3h delay. I take long distance trains basically once a month in scandinavia.

Airalo normally not need for most folk going to Europe as u can get this easily and cheaply INCLUDED in your monthly UK mobile/cell phone provider. Airalo is certainly useful IMO, for Asia
Not everyone is from the UK
@@NonstopEurotrip But if they are, they probably don't need to spend money on Airalo, is my point, rather than blithely promoting it! So check your coverage first with your mobile/cell provider AS YOU ARE PROBABLY ALREADY COVERED, as you are!
@@thomas-xj1hs ok bro 🙃
@@NonstopEurotrip Disappointing from you...
please tell me you pronounced Gävle as "jävla" on purpose!
?
@@NonstopEurotrip "jävla" means "damn" in Swedish, your pronunciation of Gävle was very close to that :)
Too much advertising thank youououou
Thanks for watching ☺️
What do you think Greta thunberg would say about yr carbon footprint?
what a weird comment
She loves the train. Fun fact, we're friends 😜
Who cares? Maybe her so called parents.
Who cares, she's a puppet. I feel sorry for her.
