Short answer

Why

  1. According to Trafikverket, Citybanan is a 6 km commuter train tunnel under central Stockholm, between Tomteboda and Stockholms Södra.
  2. Trafikverket calls Stockholm City and Stockholm Odenplan the two new stations, and says they link commuter trains and the metro so that changes become easier.
  3. According to Trafikverket, the pendeltåg have had their own tracks since Citybanan opened in 2017.

Details

The tunnel carries the pendeltåg only, so it is not a metro line, although the stations connect to the metro. Trafikverket's page has also described a closure between Stockholm City and Odenplan for sealing work in the rock, so check traffic information before you travel. For the stations around the city, see train and subway stations in Stockholm, and for costs in the capital, see whether Stockholm is expensive.

Tip

To change between the pendeltåg and the metro, use Stockholm City or Odenplan, which Trafikverket describes as built for that purpose. Check SL's Trafikläget for disruptions before you go.

What may differ

Which pendeltåg line you take through Citybanan depends on your start and end station, so check the line and direction in the SL journey planner.

Common misconception

Citybanan is a metro line.

What actually happens

According to Trafikverket, Citybanan is a commuter train tunnel, and its traffic is pendeltåg; the stations are built to link those trains with the metro.
