On some lines, particularly around Malm and Helsingborg, tickets for local and main line trains are not inter-available, but there are exceptions in respect of particular trains and destinations. SJ passenger carriages are larger than UIC standard vehicles and, apart from workings into Norway, operate no further outside Sweden than K benhavn. On many local lines trains call at stations by request. Bus-style push buttons are provided in many diesel railcars, to request the train to stop. Passengers wishing to join a train at an unstaffed, request halt need to operate a hand-worked disc signal on the station platform.
