History
Service E is the continuation of the "fast" steam trains that ran between Copenhagen and Hillerød since the late 19th century. They acquired a service letter when they were replaced by S-trains in 1986. Later the main characteristic of service E came to be serving the outer end of the
Køge radial.
An Ex service first ran from 1968, but was fused with service
Cx in 1972. A new Ex line started in 1983 servicing the Køge radial.
