This is great news for Sweden and green train technology. I'm really looking forward to a movement towards more train and boat travel, especially when solar provides all the juice.

As I have understood it, it will be possible to upgrade those trains to 250kph service later on. The ordered trains are Bombardier Regina-trains and those have run (slightly modified) in 295kph on swedish rail with a goal of running them in 250kph in regular service in a few years time Long streches of the rail system are also already upgraded for 250kph service, although the signalling system is yet not so.

How about more railways as well, since excel capacity todays equals zero percent. More trains on the same tracks (even single in some ways throughout the country) will certainly increase the numbers of delays occuring due to “congestion”.
