(needs compulsory reservation, but prices are fair)@jon Stockholm–Malmö might seem like a rather short trip for a night train, but it's a train I'm actually using a lot for my travels from and to Finland. Timetable works well with the ferries, and with Interrail, it's really good value for money.
The sleeper reservation includes a luxurious breakfast buffet at a hotel in Malmö, which is great. Tip: If you don't have time for that, you also have access to the SJ Lounge at Malmö C where light breakfast is served.

@markiejiang @jon I took DSB trains in the last, never let me down, but maybe it was just, they did not want to disappoint me

@kobold They let me down every three months or so. It's usually DB that saves the day with their absolutely massive and high-frequency network

@Pepijn @markiejiang @jon that's a good one, DB let's me down every single time I need to get to the office. It got so bad I now need to drive to the edge of the city and take local transport from there.
To be fair, DB fixed, or is doing so right now, three out of five tracks leading from my home town, maybe, some day, they might fix the main line towards Munich, too. -
@jon Don't think so. Rejseplanen is the only that hasn't given me false hope by at a critical moment not updating in time.
@sorenhave I think Rejseplannen "is it" for Denmark?

@sebwilken Ah that's how it works. That was not explained in English, and no one checked any tickets on board. But I had to run for the train to Kbh. And the beds are super comfortable - I slept soundly.
