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.

Come on a tour and see the work at Glostrup Station (2020)There is a lot of construction work going on at Glostrup Station, and we took a trip past the construction site to get an overview of the many activities. There we caught Cihad Dönmez, engineer and construction manager at Hovedstadens Light Rail, who in the video below talks about the construction work over the autumn and winter.By Hovedstadens Letbane - October 7, 2020.

New equipment for the Control and Maintenance Centre (2022)In these weeks, Siemens and Aarsleff Rail As are in the process of building and installing a so-called hydraulic lifting street and a huge roof platform for the maintenance of the future light rail trains – equipment that is absolutely vital for the light rail operation. The work platform, located above the workshop trench, will facilitate access for the light rail operator, Metro Service, to the equipment placed on top of the light rail trains. And the hydraulic liftgate will make it easier for the operator to access the train's undercarriage from below 🛠️ In the video, you can hear our Site Manager, Filip Dichmann, tell more about the ongoing work in the workshop.By Hovedstadens Letbane - November 3, 2022.

This is how we lay concrete sleepers (2022)Rails, sleepers, shards! There are many components to keep track of when the rails for Hovedstadens Light Rail need to be in place. Laying down traces is a multi-part process. First, rails are laid, then sleepers are pushed in underneath, and finally ballast (granite shards) is filled into the track, which is adjusted with a special machine that packs the shards around the sleepers so that the track lies solidly. In the video below, you can see what it looks like when our contractor, Aarsleff Rail As, pushes sleepers under the track. It looks cool! The light rail will have two tracks, but one track will be completed in the part of the stretch that is being worked on, so that it can later be used as a working track for heavy machinery that runs on rails, while the other track is being laid.By Hovedstadens Letbane - October 18, 2022.

Tram to Ishøj (2025)The day after the tram from Ishøj to Glostrup Nord began operating, I pulled myself together and drove the same route to get a picture of the wonder. It was a bit difficult to steer and photograph at the same time, but never mind.By Hans Jørn Storgaard Andersen - October 27, 2025.

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.

The drainage of the light rail through Vestskoven (2022)With the installation of the light rail, Nordre Ringvej has been adapted to the climate, so that the road can withstand future rains. However, it is not entirely easy to keep track of the water when it must neither overload the sewage system nor seep into the forest floor and thus go into the underlying groundwater reservoirs. We look at the path of the water away from the light rail.By Letbanen i Glostrup - September 27, 2022.
