Polish railway heritage and industry events

Overview

Poland has hosted various events centered on railway heritage and the rail industry. In late September, historical railway services transitioned into seasonal schedules, including the Coastal Narrow-Gauge Railway moving to an autumn-winter timetable and special retro steam locomotive excursions in the Małopolska region to celebrate railway anniversaries.

By early October, the focus shifted toward organized gatherings for enthusiasts and professionals. This included the VI Congress of Railway Enthusiasts and Friends in Gniezno, which addressed the revitalization of inactive lines and vintage rolling stock maintenance, as well as industry tours of the 105-year-old FPS Fabryka Pojazdów Szynowych factory in Poznań.
