Leo Express rail service adjustments in Europe

Overview

In early October 2026, Czech rail operator Leo Express announced the suspension of its long-distance connection linking Frankfurt, Germany, to Prague and eastern Poland. The company cited extensive construction and frequent track closures within the German rail network as the primary cause, noting that these disruptions made it impossible to maintain schedule stability despite high passenger demand.

By late October, the company announced a new timetable effective December 13, 2026, focused on expanding services. This expansion includes eight daily connections between Warsaw and Krakow and optimized international routes that reduce travel time from Warsaw to Prague by 20 minutes. The new schedule aims to serve commuters and travelers across key cities including Warsaw, Krakow, Ostrava, Olomouc, Pardubice, and Prague.
