Other information:

Haparanda and Tornio, Sweden and Finland, were connected by rail in 1919. Passenger trains between Tornio and Haparanda ceased to run in 1988. Now passenger trains will be back in operation in 2025. Why was the link built, what did it mean for traffic and why was it taken out of service? Today, the existence of the rail link is again seen as an important security of supply gateway to Europe, linking Finland and Sweden.
