In Poland, we build a large number of trains. Polish manufacturers such as Pesa Bydgoszcz, Newag Nowy Sącz, FPS Poznań, and H. Cegielski – Fabryka Pojazdów Szynowych produce very modern railway vehicles, including locomotives, electric multiple units (EMUs), passenger coaches, and trams.

The vast majority of PKP Intercity passenger coaches (almost all of them) were manufactured in Poland. The only exceptions are recently purchased second-hand coaches from Germany, which were acquired to increase capacity during the holiday season.

Poland also manufactures modern locomotives such as the Newag Griffin 160, Griffin 200, and the Pesa Gama. Modern trains such as the Pesa Dart are also built here. Locomotive classes such as the EP07 and EP09 are also widely used.

Regional railway operators mostly use Polish-built electric multiple units, mainly the Newag Impuls and the Pesa Elf. Occasionally, foreign-built trains such as the Stadler FLIRT can also be found.

Pesa Bydgoszcz also manufactures trams, which can be found in many Polish cities as well as in numerous cities abroad.

We support the Polish economy!

You are doing a great job promoting Poland, showing people we are not that grey and boring country anymore. Looking forward to your Lublin tour video!

Remember, in Poland you can buy a multi-ticket valid for all IC class trains for 30 Eu. The ticket is valid from 6 a.m. on Tuesday until midnight on Thursday. This is the best and cheapest way to travel across Poland and see some of the sights in the main cities. It's an ideal option for true travelers who want to quickly explore the centers and old towns of Polish cities.

I am 46 and keep meaning to visit Poland.

ED74 Was in the beginning a short regional route train and then they were rebuild to service longer routes. The story of service of ED74 on polish tracks is pretty tumultuous. Originaly those were purchased by PKP Przewozy Regionalne (now PolRegio) in 2005 using EU funding. In 2008 there was liquidation of "express trains" in structures of Przewozy Regionalne. Due to this fact the all ED74 were moved to PKP Intercity stock pool. Unfortunately due to some technical issues with the, and fact that Intercity struggled to find the proper use for non standard stock. From approx 2015 PKP Intercity moved them to "reserve" and left all of them unused and "roting" on sidetrack/service track of Kraków Prokocim station. There was even a prosecutor's office investigation due to suspicion of criminal mismanagement by PKP Intecity. Finally in 2019 the decision was made to fix, and modernize them for medium length routes. And finally in 2021 first 2 ED74's were modernized and starting service. Modernization was finished with ED74-014 on 31-st May 2023. ED74 had very bad opinion on the beginning due to multiple technical issues as those were new design units, further more they were designed for other kind of work than Przewozy Regionalne an Intercity was trying to use them.
Also need to point out that the trains made by PESA that are used in Czech Republic, Germany or Romania are not of the ED74 type as those are no longer produced by PESA. The ED74 series ended with 14 trains for Przewozy Regionalne. But the knowledge gained during design and production of them is now used to produce ELF series that is quite popular

Nice to see you again buddy.

Wow your pronunciation of Polish is Ostrowiec was amazing

Wow, your Polish pronunciation is really good, especially that "Ś" 😁
As for the ED74 trains, those units were originally built for Przewozy Regionalne (now Polregio), so they can feel a bit cramped in second class and aren't really designed for longer journeys.
Polregio actually has the most diverse fleet out of all the operators. From the old-school EN57s, through the modernized ones (like the one you saw around 03:45), to the newer Newag Impuls trains (17:34) and others. They also run railbuses, diesel locos with carriages etc.
I think the Regio train "Kamieńczyk" might interest you. Of course these are regional services so they stop at every station, which makes the journey longer, but you get to see so much more because of it.
Warm greetings, have a great holiday🛤

Bydgoszcz is an industrial city with a strong industrial tradition.

Bydgoszcz is also the largest (and until recently the only) producer of TNT in ALL OF NATO.

Lublin, my hometown! Gorgeous city. Very unique and a hidden gem. Shhhh don't tell anyone.

Fun fact: This Train, like many others, has a 20-minute stop at Kielce. Not because the direction is changed. The passengers wait for carriages, going from Katowice, which get coupled to carriages going from Kraków

8:50 Polish train ride ASMR 😁

jechałeś jedną ze słynnych "EDyt" :p
Wiele lat stały zapuszczone w krzakach az PKP je naprawiło i okazuje się że są całkiem fajne.

Lublin by night - wonderful.

Lublin .... is just a smaller version of Kraków .... in 2/3 scale ... LoL.
Both cities are lovely and great ... although Kraków is overrun by tourists .... Lublin... not so much.
But once in Lublin .... I recommend to visit Zamość, about 70km from Lublin.... much smaller city but a true Renaissance gem!

You’ve visited more places in Poland than I did when I lived there 😂 I also traveled everywhere by train.
Greetings from Yorkshire 😊

🎉 U hadn't butchered my town's name: Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski. I travel few times a month from Kraków to Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski and I have to say mostly it isn't very nice experience. It depends what kind of rolling stock is in use. In the summer the real horror is when there isn't AC. The best experience is when train made by Newag bought.

Really clean and modern. wow

This very same train has been with PKP Intercity for quite a while, I remember taking it from Kraków to Warsaw a few times in 2012. Back then it was a TLK train. On the inside it was even worse than a commuter train by today's standards. Hard seats, pathetic legroom, and I'm 6'2". My butt would hurt after less than an hour, my legs would go numb, and the journey would take about 3.5 hours. I recently saw that this train was back in service and got a new paint job, but I had no idea how much they've done on the inside. Good to see more attention being paid to passenger comfort. Nice review!

Amazing views. Reminds me of summer trips, the sun is superb.
