Posted pictures of Interrail infront of Hallsberg railwaystation and a statue of an railroad construction worker from the old days(called Rallare). The statue is carved out of wood with a chainsaw.
Hallsberg is famous for its huge classification yard and for the large train station. The reason for this is that railways (from practically all cardinal directions) to and from Stockholm, Gothenburg, Mjölby, Örebro and Karlstad join here. Among the more important is the Västra stambanan ("western main line"). As the railways were built, Hallsberg grew up around it.
