Stockholm Central Station (

In front of the central station stands a statue of Nils Ericson.

History

The station was built between 1867 and 1871 with Adolf W. Edelsvärd as the architect. Until 1925 the tracks led into the station but during a renovation 1925-1927 the tracks were moved to the west and the former track hall was converted into a 119-meter (390 ft) long, 28-meter (92 ft) wide, and 13-meter (43 ft) high waiting hall. During the renovation the station was extended to the south through the construction of the southern pavilion. This part of the station currently houses a conference facility. Next to the conference facility is the royal waiting hall where the royal family waits when travelling by train.^{[citation needed]}

In 1951 the facade towards Vasagatan was changed and given a more simplified look. In 1958 an underground passage to T-Centralen was opened. In 2017 the commuter trains moved to a separate station, Stockholm City Station, one kilometre (0.62 mi) away.

In 2011 Jernhusen, a real estate company in Stockholm, found a way to channel the body heat from the hordes of commuters passing through Stockholm's Central Station to warm another building that is just across the road.^[2]

The station consists of two parts:

• The northern part, with tracks 1 to 7 facing north, forms a terminal station for the
  Arlandabanan railways. Tracks 1 and 2 are reserved for the Arlanda Express, which have platforms level with the train floor allowing step free access. Track 3 is mostly used by Uppsalapendeln
  and tracks 4 to 7 are used for long-distance and regional traffic and overnight traffic to the north.
• Tracks 10 to 19 in the western part constitute a passing station for
  Västra stambanan
  and local commuter trains. Tracks 10 to 12 are mostly used for long-distance and regional trains to the south, but can also be used for traffic to the north, while tracks 17 to 19 are mostly used for long-distance and regional trains to the north, but can also be used for traffic to the south. Most of the trains turn back after the Stockholm Central Station, but some trains continue towards the north. The tracks 13-16 were high-floor tracks used for SL commuter trains until July 2017, now used for regional and long-distance trains.

On level with the Northern Railway Square are service depots for long-distance and regional trains. Terminating trains from the south arrive on tracks 17 to 19 where passengers alight, and then continue to the service depots to the north where they are cleaned and have their supplies refilled. Then they return south via tracks 10 to 12. Long-distance trains from tracks 4 to 8 are services in the same way near the Northern Railway Square.

The Stockholm Central station was the busiest station on the Stockholm commuter rail, with about 53,000 boarding the trains and about as many disembarking every weekday (as of 2005). The commuter rail used two island platforms, one for tracks 13 and 14 (southbound trains) and one for tracks 15 and 16 (northbound trains). Each platform has entries with entry gates from the lower level and a ticket sales office on the upper level with an entry from Klarabergsviadukten. From 2017 the commuter trains moved to a separate underground station, known as Stockholm City Station.

The commuter trains go on their own tracks along Ostkustbanan via

. The construction was started in January 2009 and was completed in 2017.
