Yes, I was sorry we didn’t get to ride it, but we just happened to arrive just as the train was arriving, which meant a quick picture-taking opportunity. I had forgotten how smelly steam trains are!

I especially would like to explore that castle and ride its vintage narrow-gauge steam railway.

It was! At the same time as seeing all of these beautiful and interesting places, we got to exchange blogging experiences, tips, etc. I love TBEX conferences!

I loved the steamtrain in Mariefred that looks lovingly tended and spit-polished and the train station just seems to invite you in for a visit!
