There currently are a variety of options to travel by night train from Berlin (Germany) to Linköping (Sweden), taking between approximately 13 and 18 hours: Namely the EN 344 and the 10300. These lines are operated by RDC and Snälltåget.
RDC Deutschland operates the RDC Euronight night train between Berlin and Stockholm three times a week, with stops in Hamburg, Copenhagen and several Swedish cities along the way.
Two sleeping car categories are available on board. The 1st class sleeper offers private compartments for up to three people with a private bathroom including shower and toilet; breakfast is included. The 2nd class sleeper has two-person compartments with a private washbasin and corridor toilets. These can be reserved privately or shared with other passengers in mixed or women-only compartments.
The couchette car has compartments for up to six people, bookable as a private compartment or as individual berths. Each berth includes a pillow, sheet, and blanket. Seats convert into berths for the night. Washrooms and toilets are available in the car.
The seating car is the most affordable option, offering compartments for up to six people as well as open-plan carriages. Power sockets are available at every seat and a seat reservation is included in the ticket price. Toilets are located in the vestibules at the end of the car.
Passengers in sleeping car compartments — both 1st and 2nd class — receive breakfast delivered to their compartment. Couchette and seating car passengers are not provided with breakfast.
Snälltåget offers night travel with various comfort levels on night trains between European cities.
Accommodation ranges from individual seats in coaches to shared compartments with up to six berths and private compartments for small groups. All beds include bedding and blankets.
Both shared and private compartments transform from day seating configuration to night bed mode. With three berths per side and ladder access to upper berths, private compartments offer the best option for groups.
Pets are only allowed in private compartments and must be registered during booking. Bicycles cannot be brought on the train, but folding bikes can be stored as hand luggage in the compartment or on luggage racks in the seating coach.
