Visit to Glostrup Ejby Station (2021)Glostrup Ejby Station is the first station of a total of 29 light rail stations to be completed. The station is an experimental model for how the rest of the stations should be designed. It is an advantage to have a prototype in place as soon as possible, so that we know how the stations will play together with the rest of the area. On Monday, Glostrup's mayor John Engelhardt and regional council chairman Sophie Hæstorp et al. out to inspect the station.By Hovedstadens Letbane - May 20, 2021.

Tour of the nearly completed control and maintenance center in Glostrup (2021)The light rail control and maintenance center is almost finished. After the summer holidays, Siemens and Aarsleff Rail will take over the site from CG Jensen. Please take a look at the building's current state as our construction manager, Mark Andersen, discusses the latest work in progress.By Hovedstadens Letbane - March 29, 2021.

Capital City Light Rail in Operation Simulation (3/3) - Vallensbæk to Ishøj (2025)It's not long now until the Capital City Light Rail opens its first stage, between Rødovre Nord and Ishøj St. In the run-up to the approval of the Light Rail, operational simulations will be run, which means that full operation will be simulated. I will try to document these runs, all the way from Rødovre to Ishøj. In the third and final section, the Light Rail and the S-Bahn meet twice - in Vallensbæk and the Light Rail's southern terminus: Ishøj. Along the way, the Light Rail winds through less built-up areas, and pulls away from Ring 3 when it reaches Ishøj.

Presentation of the light rail construction in Brøndby municipality (2018)In 2025, you can take the first trip with the light rail between Lyngby and Ishøj. The planned light rail route will be 28 km long, pass through nine municipalities and have 29 light rail stops - including two stops in Brøndby Municipality.By kommunegis - December 17, 2018.

Greater Copenhagen Light Rail in Operational Simulation (2/3) - Glostrup to Brøndbyvester (2025)It's not long now until the Greater Copenhagen Light Rail opens its first phase, between Rødovre Nord and Ishøj St. In the lead-up to the Light Rail's approval, an operational simulation will be carried out to test the entire system. I will try to document these runs, from Rødovre to Ishøj. In this second episode, we take a closer look at the future traffic hub—and, likely, the largest station on the Light Rail network: Glostrup Station. The station is a Rebroussement station, where trains can only enter from one track, making it a good spot to observe the light rail. We wrap up the video in Brøndbyvester, where the light rail intersects with the Køge Bugt Motorway and the new High-Speed Rail.By NoahsTrainsDK - September 4, 2025.
