The 187 kms long narrow-gauged (891 mm) railroad Växjö - Hultsfred - Västervik (VHVJ) consisted from the beginning of two private owned railroads, Växjö - Åseda - Hultsfred Järnväg (VÅHJ), ready in 1922 and Hultsfred - Westervik Järnvägsaktiobolag (HWJ), ready in 1879. The two railroads was later nationalized, VÅHJ in 1941 and HWJ in 1949 under the name Växjö - Hultsfred - Västervik Järnväg (VHVJ). This railroad was the last national narrow-gauged with passenger traffic in Sweden and its story was ended on August 20th 1984. This movie (originally Super8) shows sequences from a trip Växjö - Västervik and back again during two summerddays in 1983.
