Polish public transport historical celebrations

Overview

Poland is hosting various celebrations of its public transport history involving vintage vehicles.

In Warsaw, a nearly 100-year-old Tw245 Bergmann electric tram, originally produced in Gdańsk in 1927, was transported to the Mokotów depot to participate in celebrations for the 160th anniversary of the city’s tramway system. Once technical preparations are complete, the vehicle is intended to run on the Warsaw Tourist Lines.

Other historical commemorations include Steam Days in Poznań, featuring a 1925 Borsig Bn2t steam locomotive on the Maltanka-Zwierzyniec narrow-gauge track. Additionally, Kraków is organizing a parade to mark the 125th anniversary of its electric trams, showcasing a collection of vintage and modern trams from various Polish and international cities.
