Czech heritage railway excursions

Overview

Czech heritage railways are hosting various special excursions and historical events during the summer and early autumn of 2026.

In early August, the Úzkokolejka narrow-gauge railway scheduled trips including depot visits, a summer cinema screening, and an exhibition honoring World War veteran Jan Půlpytl-Podhajský. Concurrently, the H&H Railway planned a retro-train excursion through the Český ráj region.

Later in the season, the H&H railway scheduled its final retro excursion for August 30, traveling from Kolín to Jičín via landmarks such as Trosky Castle. Additionally, the Jindřichův Hradec narrow-gauge railway planned a special Railway Day for September 26, featuring a demonstration of two steam locomotives, the Polish-made ‘Polka’ and the Krauss-built U 37.002, traveling together on a single train.
