1st class is comfortable but the material a bit old fashioned. The inside dimension are wider than average on standard gauge, as the cars are much shorter. Food was average, wine was fine. |

With Snälltåget on Malmö -Stockholm |
| Description: |
Snälltåget is a Transdev Train, a French multi-modal company. The Snälltåget service is pulled by Swedish privat operator Hectorrail. Several time our train had to take the sidings to let pass SJ high speed trains. Therefore is was late half an hour, and I missed the connection on Bla Taget, another privat company in Sweden. |

With Bla Taget on Stockholm - Skövde |
| Description: |
Due to late arrival I missed the experience of high comfort Bla Taget, Blue Train. So I had to take another ride by SJ, 10% more expensive back to Skövde. With a modern Vectron locomotive pulling a row of classic, 1960s carriages, Bla Taget is a nostalgic but comfortable alternative to Sweden’s modern intercity trains. The train is operated by Skandinaviska Jernbanor AB five days a week between Uppsala - Stockholm - Gothenburg, prices about half of SJ first class. |
