Difficult weather conditions have caused several dozen trains in Poland to be delayed. Passengers affected by the disruptions reported this on Kontakt24. We contacted the PKP Intercity spokesman regarding this matter.

Ms. Aleksandra contacted Kontakt24 and informed about the stopped Polregio train on the Złotniki Kujawskie – Mogilno route. – We left Bydgoszcz at 18.12, and currently the board shows that the delay is 162 minutes. It's cold on the train, no one informs us about anything, said the passenger. – We're standing all the time, it's cold. We also heard about icy traction, she added.

Regarding railway difficulties, we contacted Maciej Dutkiewicz, spokesman PKP Intercity. – I can confirm at this point that we have difficulties due to rain on several railway lines in Poland. About 60 trains out of 150 are delayed. Diesel locomotives have been called in to pull stopped trains under the icy traction track, including: Warsaw – Gdańsk route – said Maciej Dutkiewicz.

“Due to icy traction, the train will not go in either direction”

A passenger of the Intercity Kormoran train also informed us about the problems. The passenger is going from Warsaw to Działdowo (Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship). “I left Warsaw East at 6:08 p.m., as usual, by the Kormoran train. First, we made an exceptional stop in Nasielsk, because a train had broken down and there was no passage, then it turned out that the traction was icy and there were a lot of sparks when I tried to drive. With a 40-minute delay We somehow reached Ciechanów,” we read in Mrs. Iza's message.

“An hour ago we heard an announcement: due to icy traction, the train will not go in any direction. We are standing in a field near Ciechanów towards Mława. There was supposed to be a bus, but it won't arrive in the field,” wrote the passenger.

A passenger of the IC Mazury train also wrote to us. “Icy railway tracks. The IC Mazury 5122 train to Łódź Fabryczna is currently standing at Narzym station before Działdowo station. Delay of over 2 hours. Wagons without electricity and heating while the ice is being removed,” the man wrote.
