Certainly, the three times I've travelled to Stockholm, I've had to
change trains in Copenhagen, but no great difficulty.

Alas, the last time, going the Helsinki Worldcon, the train from Hamburg
to Copenhagen was delayed and I spent a couple of hours on Malmo station.
Then, coming back I again missed a connection at Copenhagen and the next
train didn't leave until about 23:00.  I got into Hamburg about five in
the morning, it was just getting light but my hotel had kept my
reservation open, so I got some sleep before my train to Cologne.
