 Odense 's main railway station Odense Station lies on the line between Copenhagen and Jutland , the peninsular mainland . International trains connect the town with Sweden and mainland Europe , for example , Stockholm . SJ has a direct X2000 train to Stockholm daily , taking 7 hours to the capital city . Local and regional trains link Odense to the rest of Denmark . A separate passenger railway , Svendborgbanen , operates between Odense and Svendborg . Formerly , railways connected Odense to most of Funen 's coastal cities , but these links were closed down in the 1950s and 1960s . Today , these regional routes are served by buses operated by the public company FynBus , which also operates the town 's municipal bus service , connecting the town 's suburbs to the city centre .
