I took the Berlin-Warsaw night sleeping train in 2001. Back then all the train stations were old and derelict and all the buildings out of the window looked grey. Today it’s like a different country. All the stations have been redeveloped and most of the buildings out the window look very good. It’s unbelievable how the country has changed in the last 20 years, and it’s still changing.

It's not that perfect even today. It depends where you are in Poland. Some areas still look like in 2001... Many buildings and infrastructure still need renovation.
I would like to add some explanation concerning the statement at 40:10 : The reason for the difference of railway electrification systems between Poland and Germany is purely technical and to some degree economical. German railways started to experiment with electrification in the early 20th century. They wanted to use alternating current to be able to step the voltage up and down with transformers - higher voltage in transmission lines and catenary like 15kV means lower losses and the insulation of the motors limits the voltage they can be made for to 3-4 kV, so transformation is necessary. The series-wound electric motors however work best with direct current or low frequency alternating current and they were the only type of suitable motors available in those days. That's why the compromise frequency of 16 and 2/3 Hz was chosen - it is exactly 1/3 of 50Hz because rotating converters were required apart from some power stations built specifically to supply railway electricity. Some 20 years ago that frequency was slightly changed to 16.7 Hz as nowadays power electronics is employed instead of rotating converters and the exact 1/3 of 50 Hz was causing some problems. Polish railways started to electrify around 1930 and the 3kV direct current system was chosen as more economical to build and maintain while technically good enough. The same system is used to this day in Belgium, Spain (with the exception of high-speed lines), Italy, northern parts of Czechia and Slovakia, lines around Moscow and if I'm not wrong also on some other suburban lines in Russia and in the Baltics. Before WWII only the lines connecting Warsaw and towns around it were electrified, but after WWII other lines were electrified with the same system too and it became the only system used by public railways in Poland. And one minor thing at 36:32 : The correct name in English is Lubuskie Voivodeship and Lebus is a historical name in German while Lubus is in Latin, btw there is a town in Germany on the Oder River called Lebus in German and Lubusz in Polish that is the source of the adjective Lubuskie. I have enjoyed your videos from The Transssib very much - watching them was almost like riding those trains myself.
I also went with this train and my brother towards Przemysl. This was last year, in May 2019, also in a sleeper cabin. Though cars came from Swinoujscie and it was as fascinating as you show it in your video. In my opinion the earlier departure from Przemysl last year (18.38 instead of 19.57) was more comfortable. We were looking forward to the Sunset. What a feeling! But all in all a nice trip report! Keep on it!
Ensuite shower - this is such an extravaganza on this short route. Maybe a treadmill or other fitness device would make more sense. Or at least then the shower at hand would gain importance.
Great footage of the journey. I have not done this route via Przemyśyl into Ukraine. I went via Dorohusk and gauge changed at Jagodin/Ягодин. Looks like there are better onward connections from Przemyśyl. Will have to go this way into Ukraine in future. Thanks for sharing.
Man! If only the polish nightjet was modernized like the OBB railjet with one of the coaches having glass protection window ceiling for the breath taking experience going through the mountain areas, towns and villages to cities like warsaw!
Very beatiful film. I see, that you were going by train to Przemyśl. I very like these city, my father was born there, and I think, that I don't know more beatiful city in the world. You were going via Gliwice and Zabrze, I live there. I was in Berlin 3 days 8-11 november 2010, I was going by EC Wawel, which relantion was Kraków Głóny - Hamburg Altona via Żary, Cottbus, and I was living in Charlottenburg.
I think Poland and PKP should go into the night train business to destinations outside of Poland, like Austria does. Perhaps with routes from Warsaw to Paris, to Rome, Spain etc.
@@izobara I can’t even sleep in a sleeping car because of constant fear that the other people in the compartment could hurt me or steal anything from me, or that someone could come in at any second

EP07 The story behind it was that Poland brought the license to build British class 83 locomotives which were designated as EP06/EU06 for fleet expansion. Back in the Communist era when it was called people's Republic of Poland railway fans will compare it to a Deutsche Reichsbahn Baureihe 250 the DB Baureihe 155 which is found inside Frankfurt am Oder Gbf for this train to Frankfurt am Oder GDR Border station with VR Polen to East Berlin. If you try doing it right now discounts for Ukrainians going to Berlin from Premzyl transfer station from Kyiv Kharkiv and Odessa
Only trains classified as IC and above feature a restaurant car. TLK is the lowest class of passenger service that PKP Intercity offers, they usually feature the oldest rolling stock and no restaurant cars, but it's also the cheapest option.
@@kolejpolska yes, therefore it does't make sense to take TLK if IC is available. In TLK you pay the same and get less (older trains, lower service quality).
Rzeszow is capitol city of Podkarpackie Voyevodshaft!!!!Przremysl was Capitol of Przemyskie Voyevodshaft ,this was 49 Voyevodshaftsadministratoin in Poland during Gierek - Era !!!
You could hop on a regional train even further east to Medyka. That's really the eastern-ass of Poland. Then again, the trip to Przemysl is done by many people with a flixbus daily service from Berlin over night...I would prefer the train there though
LOL "Different electricity systems were installed due to strategic/war reasons"? NOOOO! Until late 70s (before the power electronics era, IGBT transistor inverters etc) the 3kV DB system had some pros versus the 15kV and 25kV AC system, and currently Polish rail carriers have shitloads of old locos and EMUs which work only on 3kV. Even our high speed line is electrified 3kV to allow them use it so to reach max technical speed of 250 km/h (passenger trains currently up to 200 km/h) we have to use 3000A of current (so we need very thick traction cables, using 15kV or 25kV AC they would be much thinner) and it limits us to 250 km/h as the "speed ceiling" - to reach 300 km/h the line would need to be switched to some higher voltage electrification sysem.
Transsiberian journey isn't interesting in all terms. I really hae no idea why foreigners are so much focused on that line. This is just an exhausting journey even in 1st class. No one uses this line to travel from Moscow to the very end of the line in Vladivostok. Passengers usually use it for shorter distances.
@@matveypavlov495 well of course you are right. 95% of people would take flight to Moscow but I think it is great experience to experience it at least once in your life. Especially the part from Vladivostok to Irkutsk I find as interesting. Doc Austin is aiming his channel to all means of traveling especially trains and planes. So why not? It is not about comfort or how much fast it is. It is about unique experience and you need lot of passion for travelling like this. It is not for everybody.
Hello from Rzeszow : ) maybe next time it is worth considering of taking cheap flight eg. Berlin ->Krakow. It will save you loads of time and then you can sleep over night in Krakow and explore the city itself. A kind of one day trip. The city is interesting, the architecture, the history, you can also find some delicious food. Greetings from Polen
very good doctor but you forgot to ask - is it a cold or hot shower? some poles are quite hot so maybe they like it cold. well at least it seems quite clean and that restaurant - quite good. makes me want pickle soup and pierogies. thank you for not including annoying utube music
Als ich damals erstmals allein gen Westen fuhr, noch zu DDR Zeiten(Invalidenrenter durften fahren)habe ich es sehr genossen, wenn ich im Sitzabteil alleine war und die gegenüber liegenden Sitze zusammenschieben konnte zum hinlegen. Das ,so scheint es, gibt es wohl nicht mehr, oder ?
@Elizabeth Porter yeah, and not so stunning the warsaw uprising where the soviets sat and waited till the germans put it down. and not so stunning the soviets falling into the back of poland after it was almost defeated.
Kibel is a slang name (= toilet) of EN57 electric passenger trainset that is (still) the main type of trains used for local and regional traffic in Poland. Suggest using official name in your video.
very nice video...my question here is the train Przemysl. Lviv.......i cannot book this one online ..do you have a platfrom where the IC trains can be booked thanks!!
18:23 omg basic history dude. Galicia never belonged to Austria, it was occupied by Austro-Hungarian Empire 😁 It was friendly incident just to thank Poland for saving Wien 😆😆 by Sobieski.
Tickets for this train can be also bought on PKP IC site. I give a link www.intercity.pl/en/site/for-passengers/information/journey-planner.html (hope it works). I recommend always to check a super promo offer, because the cost should be much lower than a standard offer. Regards 🍺
Before current timetable train between Przemysl and Berlin drove other line. Train drove to Raciborz and he waited on Nightjet from Wien to Berlin. He waited normal 2 hours and more when Nightjet was delayed. I waited few time for Nightjet. I don't like conductors. I sleep and he ask me about ticket in night. It's very annoying
I think this train will not last for a long time. Its running times are completely unattractive for travellers. The most heavily populated area during its journey is Upper Silesia, and Krakow too is a big town, but they are reached in the night, when the journey starts in Berlin in the afternoon. I think it should leave Berlin in the evening, and reach Katowice and Krakow in the morning. And the same is for the back journey, with too late departures from Krakow and Katowice and too late arrival in Berlin. Who would use this train between Berlin and Katowice, for example?
doc7austin’s DreamlinerCentral was that overnight or just the day you arrived? I’m considering a night time trip of Europe spending the days sightseeing
well; you should carefully check my video; on the door placards at the PKP IC seating cars you will find the big word nightjet written on it (eg minute 32:12)
Seating places are dedicated for people who dont like spend much money for ticket. Maintaining sleeping train especially international is unprofitable. The most important reason why there are international trains it's a rail custom of sorts.
George L not true! there are definitely more routes in profit without subsidies, only Czechia has at least two of them (Regiojet from Prague to Ostrava and Vienna...)
Jakub Milfajt You’re kidding, right? RegioJet is a private company that runs on public infrastructure that they don’t pay for. They also receive subsidies from Czechia and Slovakia for the majority of their fares as they are student/elderly fares. Lastly, RegioJet makes ALL of its profits from their bus operations. Their train operations still operate at a loss. The total RegioJet net profits last year were €700.000. Student Agency (the parent company) also does travel agency work, which adds to profits. Also, I wasn’t talking about individual routes. I was talking about rail systems. Routes don’t exist in a vacuum.
@@afcgeo882 Do international bus companies pay for the roads? Do international car drivers? Do airlines pay fuel taxes? All forms of transport is subsidised including cars. No one pays the true cost - there are externalities that are not included in the price. The externalities are either paid by taxpayers or through borrowings with the intent that inflation over time will take care of the principal. Long distance trains are also handicapped compared to European airlines. They have to pay tax on fuel. Whether it is electricity or diesel, tax is still paid regardless. Planes don't have to pay fuel taxes. At least trains are much less environmentall polluting than cars/planes/ICE buses; and with electrification air quality is greatly improved. Cars, planes and buses are still getting away without paying externalities (both environmentally and economically). However, this isn't really mentioned in public discourse to the same extent as rail. Why do railways have to be profitable when the same standard is never applied to roads?
26:33 Is it Bielsko-Biała station? Probaly no but it's reminds me of it for some reason. Yeah it's not looking like Bielsko-Biała but i still wonder am i right (there is still 1% chance).

Transsiberian journey isn't interesting in all terms. I really hae no idea why foreigners are so much focused on that line. This is just an exhausting journey even in 1st class.

Kibel is a slang name (= toilet) of EN57 electric passenger trainset that is (still) the main type of trains used for local and regional traffic in Poland. Suggest using official name in your video.
Hehe już pewnie cała Europa zna nasz slang hehe
very nice video...my question here is the train Przemysl. Lviv.......i cannot book this one online ..do you have a platfrom where the IC trains can be booked thanks!!

18:23 omg basic history dude. Galicia never belonged to Austria, it was occupied by Austro-Hungarian Empire 😁 It was friendly incident just to thank Poland for saving Wien 😆😆 by Sobieski.
Eh that berlin - wienna shool of history
Eu44 is popular
Hmmmm interesting? Why PKP Cargo lok?
Thx
What do you mean by"pax"?
Short for passengers.
@@claudiahansen4938 thanks
Where did you purchase tickets for this trip? Thanks
online at nightjet.com
Tickets for this train can be also bought on PKP IC site. I give a link www.intercity.pl/en/site/for-passengers/information/journey-planner.html (hope it works). I recommend always to check a super promo offer, because the cost should be much lower than a standard offer. Regards 🍺
Before current timetable train between Przemysl and Berlin drove other line. Train drove to Raciborz and he waited on Nightjet from Wien to Berlin. He waited normal 2 hours and more when Nightjet was delayed. I waited few time for Nightjet. I don't like conductors. I sleep and he ask me about ticket in night. It's very annoying
32:01 - a city (or village) that no longer exists. I don't know why the station is still there.
I think this train will not last for a long time. Its running times are completely unattractive for travellers. The most heavily populated area during its journey is Upper Silesia, and Krakow too is a big town, but they are reached in the night, when the journey starts in Berlin in the afternoon. I think it should leave Berlin in the evening, and reach Katowice and Krakow in the morning.
And the same is for the back journey, with too late departures from Krakow and Katowice and too late arrival in Berlin. Who would use this train between Berlin and Katowice, for example?
For how long did you stay in Przemysl?
just one day
doc7austin’s DreamlinerCentral was that overnight or just the day you arrived? I’m considering a night time trip of Europe spending the days sightseeing
@@doc7austin What was the point of taking this trip?
@@doc7austin definitely not enough Przemyśl is very good city
Why do you use the brand NightJet here? NightJet is a trademark of the ÖBB Austrian Railways. Nothing on this train says “NightJet”.
well; you should carefully check my video; on the door placards at the PKP IC seating cars you will find the big word nightjet written on it (eg minute 32:12)
doc7austin’s DreamlinerCentral So why is that? Hint: It’s an important factor.
Also, that’s not a “big” word. It’s about 1/150th of a screen.
В Европе машинисты поездов должны иметь право выйти на пенсию в 55 лет.

Don't like the 6-person seating cabins.
Trains look very empty, do they get huge subsidies?
Seating places are dedicated for people who dont like spend much money for ticket.
Maintaining sleeping train especially international is unprofitable. The most important reason why there are international trains it's a rail custom of sorts.
Only one train system in Europe is profitable and that’s Eurostar. The rest live on subsidies. They’re looked at like public bus/metro systems.
George L not true! there are definitely more routes in profit without subsidies, only Czechia has at least two of them (Regiojet from Prague to Ostrava and Vienna...)
Jakub Milfajt You’re kidding, right? RegioJet is a private company that runs on public infrastructure that they don’t pay for. They also receive subsidies from Czechia and Slovakia for the majority of their fares as they are student/elderly fares. Lastly, RegioJet makes ALL of its profits from their bus operations. Their train operations still operate at a loss. The total RegioJet net profits last year were €700.000. Student Agency (the parent company) also does travel agency work, which adds to profits.
Also, I wasn’t talking about individual routes. I was talking about rail systems. Routes don’t exist in a vacuum.
@@afcgeo882 Do international bus companies pay for the roads? Do international car drivers? Do airlines pay fuel taxes? All forms of transport is subsidised including cars. No one pays the true cost - there are externalities that are not included in the price. The externalities are either paid by taxpayers or through borrowings with the intent that inflation over time will take care of the principal.
Long distance trains are also handicapped compared to European airlines. They have to pay tax on fuel. Whether it is electricity or diesel, tax is still paid regardless. Planes don't have to pay fuel taxes. At least trains are much less environmentall polluting than cars/planes/ICE buses; and with electrification air quality is greatly improved.
Cars, planes and buses are still getting away without paying externalities (both environmentally and economically). However, this isn't really mentioned in public discourse to the same extent as rail. Why do railways have to be profitable when the same standard is never applied to roads?

@@robertrobski1013 comment basicaly to real n fact .
Do passengers have to bring their own food and water...through the whole trip?
26:33 Is it Bielsko-Biała station? Probaly no but it's reminds me of it for some reason.
Yeah it's not looking like Bielsko-Biała but i still wonder am i right (there is still 1% chance).
No, that's Rzeszów
