Two more unofficial 🚂 diagrams are online: I updated the 🇸🇪 #Swedish train network diagrams to 2025. I adapted the symbolisation of the frequency for a better appearance. There are some changes in the long distance traffic: #Flixtrain left Sweden, MTRX is now operated by #VR, there are almost no night trains to Gothenburg anymore. (Due to the limited number of services, the night train map is no longer as informative).

The first of 3 I'll be dropping in increasing energy, starting with this smooth and beautiful #swedish track:

🎶 I am the wilderness locked in a cage
I am a growing force you kept in place
...
I am a rolling wave without the motion
A glass of water longing for the ocean
I am an asphalt flower breaking free but you keep stopping me
Release me 🎶

Is there a #European #fighter jet that could end reliance on US & its F-35?

#Portugal & #Canada considering buying #Swedish JAS 39 #Gripen E/F as replacement for #American #F-35 due to concerns over kill switch. Is it a viable alternative?

Gripen is less expensive than F-35. Estimated operating cost of between $4,700 & $7,000 an hour compared to F35’s $33,000 to $40,000 an hour.
