Railway bridge by Gamla Stan

Railway bridge by the "Old town" (Gamla Stan) in Sweden. Trafic is intensive - I counted that the interval was ca. 30 - 60 sec. between trains. The bridge has only 2 tracks. The main track of Sweden runs on this bridge. In this video you see mainly commuter trains (e.g. type X60) but also one freight train. This video consist of several clips but I spent only about 15 minutes on the bridge. Date of shooting the film is 30th April 2008 (afternoon around 3:30-3:40 pm. if I remember correct).

@deshpremee : The railroads run left hand side. Automobiles run right hand side as in the rest of Europe now;  You can see this comparing the trains and highway running next to them. Sweden used to be left hand for roads but changed at some point in the not too distant past.

Does traffic in Sweden move on the left as In UK? I always thought the rest of Europe had left hand hand drive i.e. drive on the right side of the road.
