The train journey on the SJ 250 from Gothenburg to Stockholm was a great experience. The journey time of 7 hours and 22 minutes was pleasant and went by quickly. It was particularly convenient that it was a direct connection, so there was no need to change trains. The train was on time and the service on board was excellent.
