The "Zrobotyzowani" tourist railway group plan a steam charter for April 23, 2022, in Środa, Wielkopolska Voivodeship, Poland. The special train will be powered by two Polish narrow gauge steam locomotives: Px48-1920 + Px48-1756. The charter train will operate between Środa and Zaniemyśl, a distance of 14 kilometers (approximately 9 miles). The train will depart from the Środa Wielkopolska station around 11:00 and return around 21:00 (9:00 PM). About a dozen photo stops and a lunch break are scheduled along the route. At approximately 15:00 (3:00 PM) lunch (at an additional cost) will be provided by Średzka District Railway from Środa Wielkopolska with drinks from Gzub Brewery in Annopol. The special train's schedule has been planned to coincide with PKP intercity trains serving Środa. Środa is located approximately 35 kilometers southeast of Poznań, which itself is somewhat famous as the terminus of regularly-scheduled standard gauge steam-powered passenger trains originating in Wolsztyn. • Px48-1756, 0-8-0 (Fablok Chrzanów 2253 / 1951), 750 millimeter gauge • Px48-1920, 0-8-0 (Fablok Chrzanów 4509 / 1955), 750 millimeter gauge Price: 35 Polish złoty ($8.10) Tickets are available on-line at (Polish language): https://goout.net/pl/bilety/potega-pary ... dzie/iitl/ Zrobotyzowani (English language): https://zrobotyzowani.com.pl/skp-2022-en/ Średzka Kolej Powiatowa (English language): http://www.sredzkakolej.pl/english/index_en.html |

I hope someone goes to this and does a trip report with photos. From what I hear, Polish steam is interesting. |
