Stockaryd, Sävsjö

There are not many stations in Sweden starting with Stock, but today I will travel from Stockholm to Stockaryd.
 It's grey, cold and it's getting dark early. I have to schedule my trips to make the most out of the daylight. I will only have time to visit two places today, and it will be a short trip.
 Cityhall in Stockholm
 I'm taking X2 train from Stockholm to Nässjö
 Here in Nässjö, there are lots of trains in all possible directions. Y32 to Eksjö
 Nässjö railway museum and their Y1
 I'm taking Krösatågen service between Jönköping and Växjö.
