It is double track between Stockholm and Viggbyholm and between Åkers Runö and Åkersberga. The rest is single track, but the line to Vallentuna was being doubled in 2012. There are passing loops at some stations on the single track sections: at Altorp, Hägernäs, Rydbo, Österskär, Visinge, Täby kyrkby, Kragstalund, Vallentuna, Ormsta, Lindholmen and Kårsta. ==Ownership and present use== The railway, owned by the Stockholm County Council through the public transport company Storstockholms Lokaltrafik (SL), is not part of the nationally owned network. It is the only narrow gauge railway in Sweden still in use for commercial traffic. Roslagsbanan is part of the Stockholm public transport system. It is operated under contract by Arriva Sverige from 7 January 2013.〔()〕 Arriva Sverige took over from previous contracted company Roslagståg AB, which was a joint venture by the Danish DSB and Tågkompaniet. Despite its age and limited capacity it is one of the most used railways in Sweden. Since the late 1980s, the railway has constantly but slowly been upgraded to a modern standard with modernised rolling stock, higher platforms and straighter tracks allowing increased speed. There are 15 departures from Stockholm East in the evening rush hour, with a total ridership of 42,000 journeys per day. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Roslagsbanan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
