The Lulea to Gallivare train arrived at Boden on time at 17:20, where I was joining it.  It was due to carry on at 17:25. However, the 17:05 from Umea was running about 25 minutes late and the Gallivare train was held to maintin the connection - we left at around 17:31. It's a pretty busy 2 carriage train with the majority of passengers through from Lulea towards Gallivare, but with a significant volume of transfers from Umea and probably beyond.

Both trains were scheduled to use the same platform at Boden, but due to the delayed arrival from Umea the train from Lulea was diverted to the other side of the same platform making for an easy connection, and this change was advertised well in advance.  Easy to do with four tracks with platform faces on them. 

Passengers did not appear to be put out by the changes - I saw no signs of concern at the few minutes delay, nor any signs of people scrambily around to make the change.   And although it's a Sunday afternoon here, there are no cancellations or short runs - full service operating.
