We at Föreningen Smalspåret Växjö-Västervik wish a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all our members, active members and friends of narrow gauge! Well met in 2021, we hope for a more regular season.

As everyone knows, our railbuses do not do well when left outside in all weathers all year round. To reverse the deterioration in their condition, the association has launched a major construction project to bring them indoors. May we present the railway bus garage project! Read more on the project page about the plans for the railway bus garage in Virserum.

Trafiknostalgiska Förlaget will soon release a new book in the series Järnvägsbilder. It's not just any book in the series, it's about the Växjö-Västervik narrow gauge railway!

During the night (sometime between 22:00 and 07:30), we have been accosted by people who have enjoyed breaking windows on a couple of rail buses at the station in Virserum, as well as minor damage to the bicycle trolleys that were set up there during the night. It feels extremely sad as it creates unnecessary work, which can be spent on better things,

The home holiday offer with free dressage cycling from Hultsfred, Flaten and Virserum has been extended and now also applies to weeks 32-33. This is because we have met an extremely high demand and want to give all residents the chance to try, without congestion along the track. A warm welcome to #hemester!
