Risten–Lakvik Museum Railway

About

The Risten–Lakvik Museum Railway (Risten-Lakviks Järnväg) is a 600 mm (1 ft 11+5⁄8 in) narrow-gauge heritage railway located in southern Östergötland, between Norrköping and Åtvidaberg in Sweden. Centred on Lakvik, and utilising part of the former trackbed of the Norsholm–Västervik–Hultsfred Railway (NVHJ), the line runs north to Backasand, and south to a junction at Rosenhall, with a branch line Risten. The main line continues towards Pälstorp, although not yet reaching as far. The ultimate aim is to reach as far as Torphängen.
