Lokalbanen

Lokalbanen

Lokalbanen A/S ("The Local Railway", abbreviated LB) is a Danish company responsible for train operation and related passenger services on various railways around Copenhagen. Owned by the Greater Copenhagen Authority (HUR), Lokalbanen was established in 2001 following HUR's acquisition of the share of the railway lines previously owned by the Danish state. The company headquarters are located in Hillerød; the company has offices in various stations on the lines it operates.

Lokalbanen operates on the lines formerly controlled by Frederiksværkbanen (HFHJ), Gribskovbanen (GDS), Hornbækbanen (HHGB), Nærumbanen (LNJ) and Østbanen (ØSJS), from which it took over operation in May 2002. All companies were subsequently closed. Ownership of the trains and infrastructure from the companies is now the responsibility of Hovedstadens Lokalbaner (HL), from which Lokalbanen leases its trains; all HL lines have so far been run by LB, with the exception of the Lille Nord line run by DSB S-tog on behalf of HUR.
