Lille Syd ("Little South") is a passenger railway line on the Danish island of Zealand, connecting the towns of Roskilde and Næstved by way of Køge.

History

The railway was built as part of the Zealand South Line (Sjællandske Sydbane) which was inaugurated on 4 October 1870. After 1924, most trains used the new Ringsted-Næstved Line.

In 2012, it was decided to electrify the section between Køge and Næstved.[1]
