Remember I told you that Solna was one of the most upcoming neighborhoods/counties around Stockholm? Well, this is it's tunnelbana station and, as you can see, people leave their bikes outside the station and a lot of them don't even have a lock; that's civism and trust that nobody will come and steal it—perhaps because around that area there's no need to do so.

Commuting at Stockholms Södra
This is Stockholms södra station, one of the main and busiest pendeltåg stations in Stockholm. Here you can switch between all the commuter train lines or get off and walk around the southern end of Medborgarplatsen area.

Huge escalator / Alby Station
Alby tunnelbanestation has a set of huge escalators leading to the northern exit and riding them can easily take over 2 minutes. During the fall of 2014 the SL started changing them thus you could only use them, thankfully, to go up, imagine if you would have to climb those stairs every day? Well, at least you'd save in gym fares due to the amount of cardio you'd be doing daily.

Solna commuter train station
Together with the tunnelbana (subway), tvärbana (tramway) and buses, we also have the pendeltåg (commuter train) serving the Greater Stockholm Area.
This particular station is widely used due to its closeness to the Mall of Scandinavia and the Friends Arena, where the Swedish national soccer teams play their local games. Solna is also an upcoming neighborhood/county, which has been revitalized a lot in past few years and thousands of people are consistently moving in within its borders.
The pendeltåg service, although very efficient, sometimes get delays due to accidents —mostly suicide attempts— and electrical failures, due to overloads during summer and winter. It can take you as far as Nynäsham to the South and Uppsala in the North. And remember, the price is included in your SL månadskort (monthly card).

On my way school
This is how Alby tunnelbanestation looks like. Perhaps you cannot appreciate it, but the mural is painted over the actual hill inner walls. It was my daily departure station for the four months I was studying at Liljeholmen SFI center.
