Night trains generally don't do high speed due to comfort issues. Once the fixed link across Fehmarn is completed I would guestimate the travel time between Amsterdam and Stockholm to be about 12 hours or so, perfect for dinner on the train and then a good night's sleep. Also, if the scheduling of the train is properly constructed, I would assume quite a few people from Finland, Sweden and Denmark working in Brussels would take that train regularly.

- timwaagh 7y agoi did travel by sleeping bus. it was doable but no fun. sleeping on a moving vehicle is not something that will work for everyone. some people can, some can't. there's a reason these faded out of existence in the airplane age. besides, it remains somewhat of a gimmick that is completely outside of the core business of rail transport: transporting commuters.
