PKP Potpourri

In my travels, I take pictures here and there, which are of interest but which really don't fit any of my classifications. This page will be the collecting point for some of these images.

The PKP EU-07 class electrics are found on everything from express passenger trains to every-stop locals. This unit, #361, was sitting in the stub platform at Bydgoszcz. (September 13, 1990)

Bydgoszcz station was active that day. Several tracks over from the ET-41, a Ty-2 (possibly #1006) was switching. (September 13, 1990)

A preserved Pm2 is on display outside ZNTK Bydgoszcz, the railway carriage and locomotive repairing shop located across from the main station. Pm2 #34 was built by Schwartz in 1936 for the Deutsch Reichsbahn. (September 13, 1990)

A little boy admired a Ty-2 late at night several evenings after the above photos were taken. We spotted the Ty-2 switching the station as we passed through on a train from Krakow. (September 13, 1990)

The roundhouse in the engine terminal at Gdynia is actually a two-roundhouse affair, with the buildings joined back to back. One serves diesel locomotives, the other electrics. (September 11, 1990)

The PKP ST44 class diesel-electric freight locomotives were delivered between 1965 and 1968. With a decline in freight traffic, increasing fuel costs, and difficulty in obtaining spare parts, most of the class are now out of service. These two were found at Stalowa Wola. (September 4, 1993)

The Warszawa-Bucharest express, "Karpaty" pulls out of the station at Nowy Sacz, Poland. The train is headed by an EU-07 electric locomotive, a common sight on most express trains in Poland. (July 2, 1995)

The restaurant and buffet cars on the PKP are run by the Wars Company. Most Euro-City and Inter-City trains feature a full restaurant car, and many express trains cars a Wars bar car, such as this one. This car had recently been renovated, with stand-up counters being replaced by booth seating. (July 8, 1995)
