The Blue Line platforms at T-Centralen located 26-32 metres below ground.


T-Centralen (Swedish for "The T-Central"; T being an abbreviation for "tunnelbana", the Swedish word for "underground" or "subway") is a metro station that forms the heart of the Stockholm Metro system, in the sense that it is the only station where all three of the system's lines meet. That, its central location, and its connections with other modes of transport make it the most used metro station in Stockholm. The station is located in the Norrmalm borough of Stockholm, between Sergels torg (Sergel's Square) and the street of Vasagatan.

On a normal day, some 219,000 passengers travel to or from this station. It is connected by a pedestrian underpass to the neighbouring Stockholm Central Station across Vasagatan (for national and regional trains, and the Stockholm commuter rail network) and to the Cityterminalen long-distance bus terminal, making it easy to continue a journey started by metro train.

The name of the station was originally "Centralen" ("The Central"), but it was renamed on January 27, 1958, as the metro station often was mistaken for the central railway station to which it is connected. T-Centralen has two separate sets of platforms, connected together by a long moving walkway on a mezzanine level.

Update:
There is no people on the stairs as I did this photo at 22:40, so it was quite late, not rush hours :)
