Tog-billeder By: Gunnar Christensen. Language: Danish.
"Here at tog-billeder.dk you can find a lot of pictures of trains and locomotives of all kinds. Here are photos of steam locomotives, electric locomotives, diesel locomotives, train sets, special carriages, sea trains, veteran trains from various museum railways and various narrow gauge railways. "
"When the Capital City Light Rail opens the full stretch between Ishøj and Lundtofte this summer, it will mark the end of one of the most extensive infrastructure projects in the capital region in recent times.
With 29 stations and an expected annual passenger count of around 14 million, there is high demand for execution, logistics, and material selection. Also, there are layers that are not visible in the finished structure, but which are crucial for both function and operation."
"The history and craft of carriage-making and horse-drawn vehicles, as well as articles on traditional karetmager (carriage-maker) techniques, historical wagons, tools, and related local history, plus quizzes and information on horse-related topics."
"I am Jonas Linell, an artist from Charlottenlund, Denmark, who paints to order for clients all over the world. I trained as a natural history illustrator and wildlife artist at Blackpool and The Fylde College in the UK, in a very traditional way: badger brushes, still life painting and field studies were the order of the day. Today I paint in oil on canvas, and most of my work is commissioned portraits."
"For many years, tram lines 2 and 5 were a stable feature of the streetscape at Brønshøj Torv. Even when the lines were converted to bus service in 1969 and 1972, respectively, they continued to serve the square. They did so until the first metro line opened in October 2002, when the A bus lines were introduced."
"The original intention was that the site would just be a place where my lectures were reproduced. But more and more articles came. Admittedly, some were written too quickly, were not edited enough and are full of stupid mistakes. Now the technique has improved, and hopefully the content as well."
"A large historical photo archive dedicated to trams and light railways, with a focus on Copenhagen and Amager. It features extensive collections of tram photographs, historical materials, drawings, travel reports, depot images, and themed galleries covering specific routes, locations, and vehicle types. It also includes tram-related content from cities across Europe, including Barcelona, Lisbon, Rome, Vienna, Oslo, Helsinki, and Istanbul, making it both a local history resource and an international archive for tram enthusiasts."
"Light Rail Day was founded under the name "Letbanedagen" in 2009 in Odense/Denmark. At the time, it was intended to be the national light rail conference for Denmark. Founder Bernd Reuß got the idea after it became clear that there would be funding for the first Danish city tram system in Aarhus. Four decades before this, the last city tram in Copenhagen had been closed. The name of Bernd's company at the time was Goodtranslations - later it was changed to Lightrailday.com"
"Sunday, October 26, marks a historic day for the capital's public transport. After several years of construction work, the first stage of the Capital Light Rail opens, connecting Ishøj and Rødovre Nord – a stretch that will become an important backbone for future mobility across the capital area."
"The first section of the Copenhagen Capital City Light Rail between Ishøj and Rødovre Nord opened yesterday. The final section will open in the summer of 2026."
"Devoted to the tram/streetcar/LRT systems of the world. I shall present here maps and other network information about as many tram systems as possible, as they are today, and as they were in the past."
"29-year-old Nikolaj Barfoed-Thaysen from Glostrup is excitedly following the countdown to the opening of the Light Rail on October 26. For Nikolaj Barfoed-Thaysen, the upcoming green connection means an opportunity for easier and faster transportation in the local area."
Trams & tramways By: Arne Melby Pedersen. Language: Danish, English.
"About trams and tramways, both operating systems, tramway muses, as well as historical information about Copenhagen Tramways, Odense Tramways and Aarhus Tramways."
"Since 1863, trams have been part of Denmark's urban transport. In 1972, the last tram ran in Copenhagen, and 45 years passed before it returned in 2017 in Aarhus, now called light rail. Since 1978, however, the tram has been on display at the Sporvejsmuseet Skjoldnæsholm in Midtsjælland. See the many programs on Danish trams from before 1972, available in both images and videos, along with TV programs on collective urban traffic of the future."
"Trams operated in Copenhagen, Aarhus and Odense from 1863 to 1972. They lasted the longest in Copenhagen, until narrow-minded politicians slaughtered them."
"Letbaner.DK wants to disseminate knowledge and suggestions on environmentally friendly public transport based on experiences from Denmark and abroad, with a focus on light rail, and to contribute to a technically well-founded, factual debate about the development of future traffic in major cities, especially Copenhagen."
"The Swedish Tramway Society operates a museum tram service at four locations in Sweden. In Malmköping, there is Sveriges Lokaltrafkmuseum (the Swedish Urban Transport Museum), with preserved trams and buses from many Swedish cities. We also operate service in Stockholm, Norrköping, and Malmö, and we cooperate with Ringlinien in Gothenburg."
"DDSH stands for the Danish Tramway Series, a series for children aged 8-13. The series takes place in Copenhagen, Aarhus & Odense, where trams ran until 1972, 1971 & 1952. The series consists of several upcoming books featuring stories based on or inspired by real events."
"In the fall of 2025, you can take the first trip between Ishøj and Rødovre Nord, while the northern section from Rødovre Nord to Lundtofte is expected to be ready in the summer of 2026."
"Take a seat in the little yellow tram and enjoy the nostalgia as you roll around among the spinning rides and beautiful gardens. In the old days, real trams with the number 8 on the sides ran past Tivoli, but since 1969, the miniature version of Line 8 has run through the Gardens."
"The Skjoldenæsholm Tram Museum is a living museum. You experience public transport as it was in the 19th and 20th centuries. There are running trams from 3 Danish cities (Copenhagen, Odense and Aarhus) and European cities as well as from Melbourne in Australia."
"The Danish Transport Authority has now confirmed that safety standards are in place on the first section of the Light Rail from Ishøj to Rødovre Nord. The Capital City Light Rail can, therefore, open as planned on October 26."
"At Aarsleff Rail we make society mobile by building and maintaining railway infrastructure. We create the solutions of the future through unique expertise, trusted collaborations and profitable, responsible growth."
"We are Metro Service. We operate and maintain the Metro in Copenhagen. We have been doing this for more than 20 years. Soon we will do the same with the Light Rail on Ring 3."
"Mølbak Landinspektører A/S has entered into a framework agreement with Hovedstadens Letbane I/S for assistance in connection with the planning, design, and establishment of a new light rail system in Greater Copenhagen – the approximately 27 km long light rail system on Ring 3 between Ishøj and Lyngby."
"The Capital Region of Denmark, together with 11 municipalities, is behind the Capital Light Rail, which will be built along Ring 3. The light rail will have 29 stations on a 28 km-long route. At six of the light rail stations, you can change to the S-train. The light rail will stop at both Herlev Hospital and Rigshospitalet Glostrup, ensuring easy transport and access for patients, relatives, and employees at the hospitals."
"Construction work on the light rail section at the three DTU stations is progressing rapidly, and a picture is beginning to emerge of what the area will look like when the light rail is in operation. The light rail in Lyngby has been featured in a photo report from the northernmost end of the light rail."
"After test runs in Germany, the Capital City Light Rail received the first of a total of 29 trains on Thursday night, which will carry millions of passengers around Copenhagen from 2025."
"The second stage of the light rail, which runs through Lyngby, is expected to open this summer. There has been great opposition to the light rail in the municipality, and there has been a great deal of uncertainty about what a light rail is and what it can do for us. Many believe that a light rail is just a tram, and that it is a relic of the past, which does not belong in the modern urban landscape. In this article, I will try to address some of the questions and reservations that may be raised regarding the light rail."
"The Skjoldenæsholm Tram Museum was inaugurated on May 26, 1978 and is under constant expansion. The Museum is built and run exclusively by voluntary, unpaid labor who, as members of the Tram History Society, spend a large part of their free time ensuring the continued operation and expansion of the museum."
