Welcome to the guide to travelling on the trains which provide most of the passenger services over the Oresund Bridge.
Accessing the train
Attributes of the train
Which country these trains operate in.
The power sockets on this train, which are only available in First Class, are compatible with standard E.U. two point plugs.
Externally similar to Danish IC3 trains, these Øresundståg trains are used for nearly* all of the passenger train services that cross the Oresund Bridge between Sweden and Denmark.
(*The exceptions are the direct Snabtag trains between Stockholm and Copenhagen/Kopenhamn/Kobenhavn).
The 1st class seating is at the ends of each 3 coach train - look for the double yellow bands above the windows.
These trains are being modernised, one welcome addition is a dedicated luggage space in each central car - look for the luggage symbols on the outside of the trains.
Two or three trains are usually joined together to form 6 or 9 coach/car trains.
All of the 3 x trains per hour follow this route (in each direction):
Helsingor - Østerport (Copenhagen) - Norreport (Copenhagen) - København H (Copenhagen) - Kastrup Airport - Lund
Between Lund and other destinations in southern Sweden, these trains follow one of three routes
(i) Lund - Helsingborg - Goteborg
(ii) Lund - Alvesta - Kalmar
(iii) Lund - Kristianstad - Karlskrona
Non-folding bicycles can be taken on board, both for journeys between Sweden and Denmark and for journeys solely within Sweden more info is available on the guide below
