From three travelers it is cheaper than the ordinary commuter train — SEK 580 against SEK 600 — which is the reverse of what an express is meant to do, and it happens because the passage fee is charged per head with no group rate.
It still loses to the bus at every party size, by a wide margin.
The operator is A-Train, the same company that owns the station and levies the passage fee the commuter train has to pay.

Buy SL's combined SL and Arlanda single, in the SL app or from an SL agent: it covers the train, the trams and one passage through the gates at Arlanda. The trip can take 87 minutes with the waits, longer than the 75 minutes of a plain SEK 43 single.
At Solna, the commuter train stops at the station and the tram leaves from Solna station a walk of about 6 minutes away. At Norra Ulvsunda the wait for tram 31 can reach 28 minutes on weekend mornings.
The last connection leaves Arlanda Central at 22:14 and reaches Bromma at 23:25 on weekdays and 23:30 at weekends.
