TRAIN
Rail services between Sweden and Norway are operated by
Norwegian Railways (NSB;
81 50 08 88;

)
or
Swedish Railways (SJ;
in Sweden 0771-75 75 99;
It's worth noting that some of the Stockholm-Oslo services require a change of train in
the Swedish city of Karlstad.
It's also possible to travel from Trondheim to Sweden via Storlien and Östersund, al-
though you'll need to change trains at the border.
Sea
Ferry connections are possible between Norway and Denmark, Germany, Iceland, the
Faroe Islands and Sweden; sadly the ferry services between the UK and Norwegian ports
have been discontinued. Most ferry operators offer package deals that include taking a car
and passengers, and most lines offer substantial discounts for seniors, students and chil-
dren. Taking a bicycle incurs a small extra fee.
If you're travelling by international ferry, consider picking up your maximum duty-free
alcohol allowance on the boat.
