  1. Finland has its own track gauge (almost the same as the Russian), but now with Finnish & Swedish NATO membership the scale seems to be tipping in favour of adding standard gauge to a few lines up in northern Finland starting at the connection to Sweden's railways.

  2. Then vs now.

    At Årstaberg station (commuter rail & LRT ring line) just outside inner city Stockholm. Big redevelopment ongoing. Low rise light industry to high rise residential (fairly urban). Including eastern entrance going from stairs & ramp up to narrow shared use path, to a a plaza with nice ramp & stairs, wide pedestrian + cycling bridge across, and a big grocery store coming!
    Other side getting somewhat redeveloped soon too.
