City centre to city centre with no check-in time to add and no airport hassle, internet available on board and laptop power sockets at every seat. Introduced in 1990, X2000 (also known as X2) is Sweden's 200km/h (125mph) tilting high-speed train, linking Stockholm with Malmö, Copenhagen, Gothenburg and a range of other Swedish cities. X2000s are fast, smooth and quiet, but you won't notice the train tilting unless you look carefully at the angle of the train compared to the scenery!
