Another sunny day, this time in both Denmark and Sweden
Copenhagen Airport station new platforms seen from the airport hotelKøbenhavn H
There are fewer Intercity trains to Odense and further west than usual, only one train each hour. Instead, they are extra long, so it can be difficult to find your wagonI am using one Interrail day in 1st class; breakfast is included
Sorø
At Slagelse I can spot a freight train waiting, so I'm heading back to see it
There is a single-track operation between Slagelse and Ringstedt, so the freight trains have to wait for the green light before departing
Ringstedt
So, here it is

Regular 7-Eleven in Denmark
Now I'm crossing the bridgeAt Nyborg I can spot the EG 3101 that is parked here
The line between Odense and Middelfart is also single-tracked, so there is a slot for each train
Trying out this one

Snälltåget has been expanding, offering day trains to both Hamburg and Oslo. The train between Hamburg and Stockholm departs from Odense at 13:54, which is perfect for me. I will only go to Malmö.
The other option would be to change trains in Copenhagen, which is more convenient and faster, but it's only available once per day.
The train is very crowded, but I have reserved a seat in the restaurant coach, so I'm planning to spend my time here until Malmö.
Since it is not possible to purchase food on board Danish trains, this is also a nice benefit

Arriving at Malmö C
At Östervärn I can spot Snälltåget departing in the opposite direction
The freight I saw earlier in Odense, has now reached Malmö, it was much slower than Snälltåget
Not sure where this one came from, since SJ stopped serving Copenhagen some time ago
This one was also earlier seen in Odense
