Along Valhalla Avenue is the old Olympic Stadium from the 1912 games.

University snowmobile
I found a snowmobile at the University.
University art
The University is full of art. Some of which makes more sense than others.
KTH Univesitat
Around the back of Valhalla Avenue, just by the terminus of the Roslagbanan is the Kungliga Tekniska högskolan.
Roslags Näsby
Just south of Täby Centrum the Roslagsbanan splits into two different lines at Roslags Näsby.
Täby Centrum
A few stops from Djursholms Örsby is Täby Centrum, another part of the sprawling suburbia of Stockholm.
Djursholms Örsby
Coming back from Näsby on the Roslagsbanan I changed at Djursholms Örsby to explore a different branch.
Näsby
Taking the narrow guage railway from Mörby, Näsby Park looked like an interesting place to visit. Its not. The Näsby Slott, although rebuilt after its fire in 1897 now houses a conference centre and has the air of somewhere with attack dogs roaming the grounds on weekends. So I didn’t explore inside the razor wire fence.
Hagästra
At the southern end of the green line is Hagästra, predictably another concrete wasteland of suburbia, with little in the way of redeeming features except for a shop selling delicious strawberries.
Drottningholm gothic tower
Hidden elsewhere in the palace gardens there is a gothic tower.
