New Sleeper Train to Launch Between Brussels and Malmö in 2028
The route will run three times a week and offer seats, couchettes and sleeper compartments as European Sleeper expands into Scandinavia with RDC.
- European Sleeper announced a new direct night train service connecting Brussels and Amsterdam with Copenhagen and Malmö, set to begin operations in April 2028, marking the company's first route into Scandinavia.
- German railway operator RDC will partner on the project, leveraging its experience operating night trains between Germany and Scandinavia to support the new Benelux-Sweden connection.
- Departures are planned for 7pm with arrival at 10am the next day, running three times weekly and offering seats, couchettes for 3 to six people, and deluxe options "also being considered."
- By linking Western and Northern Europe overnight, the route brings Copenhagen and Malmö within direct reach while enabling connections to London, Paris, Stockholm, and Oslo with one additional change.
- Co-Founder Chris Engelsman described the expansion as a "natural next step," as European Sleeper continues preparations for a separate Brussels-Barcelona connection, also planned for 2028.
