Stockholm Metro Ride - Norsborg to Vårby gård | 1 Escalator, 1 Inclined Elevator | Sweden | 26/08/25

Norsborg metro station is the end station on the red line of the Stockholm metro, located in Norsborg, Botkyrka Municipality. The distance to Slussen is 20.8 km. The station was opened on 12 January 1975 as the southwestern terminus of the extension from Fittja. The new Norsborg Depot was built immediately beside Norsborg station between 2012 and 2016, and houses the new SL C30 trains that started operations on the red line in 2020. Vårby gård is a station in the Stockholm metro in the Vårby district of Huddinge Municipality. The station was opened on 1 October 1972 as part of the extension from Vårberg to Fittja. As part of Art in the Stockholm metro project, the station features a Flora mural, created by Rolf Bergström 1999. On 7 January 2018, an explosion just outside the station killed a man in his 60s and injured his wife. The man is believed to have picked up a suspected hand grenade from the ground. There was no evidence it was related to terrorism or that the couple were targeted. The Red line (Swedish: Röda linjen; officially Metro 2, but called Tub 2 ("Tube 2") internally), is one of the three Stockholm Metro lines. It has a total of 36 stations, of which four are cut and cover, 16 are tunneled, and 15 are on the surface. The line is a total of 41.238 kilometres (25.624 mi) long. It consists of four branches with terminals in Fruängen and Norsborg in the southwest and Mörby center and Ropsten in the northeast. The "Red line" designation began in the late-1970s, and officially only since the 1990s, and comes from the fact that the route has been marked in red on Storstockholms Lokaltrafik's maps at least since the 1970s. Previously, the Red line had been coloured orange on the system map, but as new maps were printed with changes, the colour became increasingly redder in the 1980s. Route and stations The Red line is served by two routes—lines 13 and 14—and carried 507,850 passengers per working day (2019), or approximately 128 million per year (2005). Line 13 runs between Norsborg and Ropsten, while line 14 operates Fruängen-Mörby centrum. Regular daytime service is a 5-minute headway on line 14 between Mörby center and Liljeholmen, and 10 minutes at other times. During rush hours there is a 5-minute service between Alby and Sätra-Ropsten and also along line 14, providing a train every 2.5 minutes on the joint stretch between Östermalmstorg and Liljeholmen (i.e. 24 trains per hour). #metro #railway #rail #ubahn #subway #transport #railways #publictransport #transit #rapidtransit #train #trains #transportation #bahn #eisenbahn #bahnhof #subwaystation #stockholm #sweden #sverige #tunnelbanan #tunnelbana #ubahnride #publictransportation #europe #züge #zug #tåg #tunnelbanetåg #järnväg #järnvägsspår #treinen #tunnelbanestation #escalator #escalatorsandelevators #rainbowescalator #rulltrappa #rulltrappor #Norsborg #Vårbygård #metromark #metrocheck #antonv
