PKP Intercity invites you to the Railway Technology Days. During the event, which will take place in Warsaw this coming Sunday (June 13) at the Warsaw West station, it will be possible to sit at the controls of the most modern and fastest passenger locomotive – the Siemens Eurosprinter, known in Poland as the “Husarz” (Hussar). It was a locomotive of this series that, during tests conducted in May 2009, sped along with a PKP Intercity train at a speed of 235 km/h, setting a record for a locomotive-hauled train on Polish tracks. A few years earlier, in Germany, the Eurosprinter broke the world speed record for a locomotive – 357 km/h. Along with the “Husarz”, a 1st class open-plan carriage (the latest acquisition of PKP Intercity produced by the Poznań-based FPS) and a special conference carriage will be presented. For the youngest participants of the event, games and activities with prizes have been prepared. In addition to Warsaw, events in the Railway Technology Days series will take place in Gliwice, Gdańsk, and Częstochowa. Details and the program can be found on the websites www.intercity.pl and www.pkp.pl.
