I travelled from Stockholm to Oslo on the SJ 623, and the journey surprised me in a very positive way. The train left Stockholm on time at 07:37 as stated and arrived in Oslo on time at 13:10. But it wasn't just the punctuality that I found great, but also the staff on board, as they were all very friendly and always had a smile on their faces.
