Railway transport

Preliminary statistics related to railway transport.


          Logotype Official Statistics of Sweden

This is preliminary statistics that are updated quarterly and contains the most important figures of railway transports in Sweden. The number of journeys, goods volumes and transport performance (passenger- and tonne-kilometres) are reported. The freight transports are reported with and without ore shipments on the Iron Ore Line.


The scope of the survey

The survey covers all commercial railway traffic with a few exceptions, such as the heritage railway traffic and traffic in industrial areas. For reasons of confidentiality, very little information is reported per company or per line; summaries are instead given for the entire country.
