We are preparing for storm Ulla

Heavy rainfall and exceptionally strong gusty winds brought by Storm Ulla are forecast for Friday, July 4th, in the southern and central parts of the country. We are closely monitoring the situation and preparing in advance for potential disruptions to train traffic.

You can follow the status of train traffic and your train on the On track site and in the VR Matkalla app. We recommend allowing journey-related notifications in the app settings so you’ll receive real-time updates about your train via push notifications.
