Halfway from Olsztyn to Kraków

The 06:45 'fast' train (pośpieszny) from Olsztyn Główny to Kraków Płaszów between W-wa Dawidy and W-wa Jeziorki. The journey takes just under ten hours and the train makes 26 stops, including four at various Warsaw stations. Nearly five hours after leaving Olsztyn, the train is still running to timetable. Anorak note: the engine is EP07-174. The EP07 is the workhorse of PKP's electric passenger services, rebuilt from the mixed-traffic EU07s in the mid-1990s. The EU07 and EP07s are to be seen right across PKP's electrified network and are based on the English Electric Class 83 loco.
