Lines
There are two lines in the Gothenburg commuter rail system. One between Gothenburg and Alingsås, the second between Gothenburg and Kungsbacka.
The commuter trains to Alingsås have been going since 1960. Commuter trains to Kungsbacka started to go in 1992, when the railway had been rebuilt as double track.
The railway to Trollhättan is being rebuilt as a double track railway, to be completed in 2012, when both a new commuter rail connection to Älvängen and a denser regional schedule to Trollhättan will be introduced.

Famous quotes containing the word lines:
“I need not tell you of the inadequacy of the American shipping marine on the Pacific Coast.... For this reason it seems to me that there is no subject to which Congress can better devote its attention in the coming session than the passage of a bill which shall encourage our merchant marine in such a way as to establish American lines directly between New York and the eastern ports and South American ports, and both our Pacific Coast ports and the Orient and the Philippines.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
“When first my lines of heavenly joys made mention,
Such was their luster, they did so excel,
That I sought out quaint words and trim invention;
My thoughts began to burnish, sprout, and swell,
Curling with metaphors a plain intention,
Decking the sense as if it were to sell.”
—George Herbert (1593–1633)
“Every living language, like the perspiring bodies of living creatures, is in perpetual motion and alteration; some words go off, and become obsolete; others are taken in, and by degrees grow into common use; or the same word is inverted to a new sense or notion, which in tract of time makes an observable change in the air and features of a language, as age makes in the lines and mien of a face.”
—Richard Bentley (1662–1742)
