new train of the week!!
continuing with Swedish trains, this week's train: SL X15p, a narrow-gauge Stadler train running on the Roslagbanan

my first reaction to this train was utter confusion - it looks like a Stadler, it barks like a Stadler, but what's up with this weird shape? only after taking a journey to Täby i realized, it's a narrow gauge railway :3

very friend-shaped train, deserves a pat on the snout
SL X15p, blue Stadler train, marked as 713A; the face looks like a FLIRT train, but the body is very narrow towards the bottom and somewhat oddly slanted at the top
two X15p trains facing each other, with another in the background on another platform
close-up of the face of the train, with red/amber glowing front lights
an X15p from the side, making the bottom thinness even more apparent

@jeder yeah that's the best part, they've just got really wide trains, so you wouldn't know it's a narrow gauge unless you look at the tracks themselves
also they're driving on the left side for some reason
