How many S-train lines are there in Copenhagen, and how often do they run?

Lines and frequency of the S-train.

Answered at: Checked at:

Short answer

The S-train network in and around Copenhagen has 7 lines and is run by DSB. As of November 2026, trains run every 10 minutes from morning to evening on each line. Line F has a train every 5 minutes. You do not need a timetable for daytime trips: just go to the platform. Late in the evening and early in the morning departures are less frequent, so check the time before you leave.
