I'm on the night train from Kolari to Helsinki, returning from a work gig. This is the longest distance direct train trip in Finland, covering most of the country. It lasts around 11+ hours with around 900km distance.
I've always wanted to take one of these trains, as most of the train is sleeper cabins. Check out mine!
