Flemingsberg - Årstadal - Tierp - Skutskär

Flemingsberg station opened 1987 when new Grödingebanan railway to Södertälje south was completed. The station is operating both commuter trains (Pendeltåg) and regional trains.
 Stockholm commuter trains is using X60 Alstom Coradia Nordic, launched 2005.
 SJ Regional is using X40 Alstom double deck trains, also launched 2005.
 Årstaberg station opened 2006 as a connection point between commuter trains (pendeltåg) and local tram line (tvärbanan).
 New railway bridge in Årstaberg is still under construction, and will be used for new Citybanan opening 2017.
 Funny figures at commuter train doors to help and cheer up.
