Not a 🚆 revolution but still very good news: direct train from Amsterdam to Copenhagen from December 2025.

Current trip is >10 hrs and involves min 2 changes.

This is an improvement. Now let’s work to reduce the duration, and have a high frequency and low price 🇩🇰 🇩🇪 🇳🇱

New direct train connection between Amsterdam and Copenhagen as of 2025

For those who would like to arrive faster in Copenhagen to see the breathtaking architecture or eat delicious cinnamon buns, can look forward to the new rail connection of the Danish Railways (DSB). That's because DSB is planning a direct train between Amsterdam and Copenhagen in 2026. This schedule will begin in mid-December 2025, Treinreiziger.nl reports.

And when the Fehmarn Belt tunnel opens in 2029, that's another 2 hours and 10 minutes saved. i.e. less than 7½ hours.
Still a whole day or night, but a stark difference from 10+ hours and at least 2 changes.
