We left Narvik train station at 10:50am heading south towards Boden. 
The scenery was beautiful once again Norway is a feast for the eyes. The temperature reading on the train notifications said it was -17 degrees outside. 
Arriving in Boden 5:20pm we had three quarters of an hour to wait before boarding a night train to Stockholm. We were going to spend the night on a sleeper train, all part of the ‘Europe by train ‘ experience. 
The sleeper compartment was very small but we had our own bathroom which was a bonus. The bunk beds were very comfortable and the gentle rocking of the train soon sent us to sleep. Once or twice we woke in the night and looked out of the window. The weather was atrocious with blizzards but the train continued speeding through the night.
We arrived in Stockholm at 6:30 am and went to the Royal Viking Hotel which was next to the station for breakfast.
Our hotel for the next two nights would be another Comfort Hotel, my preference to a sleeper carriage.
