The railway system in Sweden is trash. We have to and should have spent a lot more into maintenance and new tracks.

    Interesting to hear that other countries have the same problem. Sweden wasn't one I would have thought of tho.

    Having just returned from Stockholm to the UK I have to say it was seriously impressive in comparison, atleast in Stockholm greater area I had nothing but good experiences with public transport. The cost of travelling within Stockholm unlimited for a week (£35) on busses and trains is around the price to take 1-2 trains in the UK. And they're so frequent and run for better hours. Not saying this to detract from your message tho, just interesting to see a different perspective ... it's likely theres valid case to improve funding for maintenance and lay new tracks
