7752 - VR Finnish Railways
Title:  7752 - VR Finnish Railways
Description:  High-speed ALLEGRO services between Helsinki and St. Petersburg started on December 12th last year. The travel time is cut to approximately three and a half hours which is more than two hours less than at present. The trainsets are owned by Finnish VR and Russian RZD's joint rolling stock company Karelian Trains. Alstom has delivered four Allegro trains to the joint venture company. Here the train passes the disused Utti railway station, built 1920, on a cold snowing winter day.

Description:  OPEN ACCESS, THE STORY BEHIND: Step 7 - SJ AB also may participate in the tender for long-distance and regional transport services.

Title:  1392 - SJ AB, Sweden
Description:  OPEN ACCESS, THE STORY BEHIND: Step 8 - The forme state owned SJ used quite old passenger coaches. They were produced beginning 1961 and were in poor condition. The railway sold 25 of the oldest coaches between 2005 and 2009. The remaining 71 were renovated from 2005 to 2008 and are now used for fast regional services. Inside they really comfortable, old style soft seats, but refurbished with new material. A comfortable nostalgic touch.
