2nd day of my trip around south of Sweden starts in Jönköping. First I'm following the branch railway of HNJ (Halmstad-Nässjö Järnväg) from Jönköping to Vaggeryd.
The railway is called Vaggerydbanan, and here I'm visiting Hovslätt
Hovslätt is very close to Jönköping, and one of the stops for Krösatåg line to Värnamo and Halmstad.
Next stop is Norrahammar
Old logotype of JLT (Jönköpings Länstrafik).
The train stops only when the dedicated sign is switched on
Y32 train is arriving
Y32 1411
Since I'm travelling by car, I can catch up same train at the later stop which is Månsarp
Månsarp
From Månsarp I'm switching off to Bor which is located further south along Kust till kust railway.
Coast to coast railway from Göteborg to Kalmar consists of 5 separate railways.
Since 2008 the station is operated by Krösatåg commuter trains from Värnamo to Växjö.
Horda station is however not operated anymore.

Last stop that I'm visiting today along Kust till kustbanan is Emmaboda. When the railway was built it was decided that Emmaboda would be a junction station for the two railway branches, one for Kalmar, other one for Karlskrona with equal distances to Emmaboda.
The branch railway from Emmaboda to Karlskrona is today operated only by Krösatåg
I'm now heading to Karlskrona and visiting Visselfjärda station
Looks like the old JLT logotype
The railway between Emmaboda and Karlskrona was modernised during 2011-2014 and opened with two new stations: Visselfjärda and Holmsjö.
X11 3135 in Visselfjärda
Holmsjö is located almost in between the two towns
X11 3135
Holmsjö is located in Blekinge, hence the ticket machine is from Blekingetrafiken
Rödeby station was once located here
Not much left of the station
At the end I arrive to Karlskrona, the view from my hotel
