Rimbo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rimbo is a locality (pop. 4,600) in Norrtälje Municipality, Stockholm County, Sweden. Rimbo is located about 20 km west of the municipal seat Norrtälje.

Rimbo grew up as a railhead at the junction between the narrow gauge railways to Uppsala and Norrtälje (1884), Stockholm (1885) and Hallstavik (1896). The last line (to Stockholm, part of Roslagsbanan) was closed in 1981. A formal decision has been taken to reopen the 14 km line to Kårsta (the present northern terminus of Roslagsbanan), but no funds have been allocated.
