Kraków northern loop line via Nowa Huta - podg Wisła – Podłęże

[120] (38A1, 43A3) PL10/13

The workers service to serve the Steel works complex at Nowa Huta is believed to still run to serve this line and Podłęże. These are from the 2008 working timetable period and note the evening and weekend services are worked by a Track Maintenance Draisine so may be difficult to travel on.

SSuX 9930/1 Kraków Plaszów 06:06 - Kraków Główny 06:17 - Kraków Nowa Huta 06:43 - Podleze 07:09 - Kraków Główny 07:38 (EN57) N

Hurko - Medyka

[122] (44A3) PL10/14

Between these points the broad and standard gauge tracks follow separate routes. The internal PKP service was withdrawn on 31 March 2004 but a limited service via the Broad gauge line has continued at all times. The standard gauge tracks saw no scheduled passenger use following an incident with the Kraków – Kiev service at the Mostiska 2 gauge changer in the Ukraine in October 2006 but recent reports since it resumed running daily from 1 June 2009 show varying gauge changer use. A westbound traveller in summer 2009 used the broad gauge line and Przemyśl gauge changer, whilst in Spring 2010 the eastbound service changed there and the westbound service used the standard gauge line and Ukrainian gauge changer. Internal PKP Staff trains may continue on the standard gauge as there were non-timetabled halts serving transhipment yards so confirmation of 2010 use would be welcomed.

[Stróże] – Biecz – Jasło

[131] (43B3) PL10/15

No service in 2010.

Goczałkowice Zdrój (Mont Wisla) – Zabrzeg (Ochodza)

[146/151] (40B1) PL10/17

Westbound departures from Katowice Gł platforms 1-4 can run via a separate route via a flyover but pointwork also allows access to the main line. From observations all trains departing from platform 1 at Katowice Gł seem to use this route.

Nędza Wieś – Kuźnia Raciborska (Turze)

[153/160] (37A1) PL10/18

An east-to-north chord avoiding Nędza station for trains shown on tables 153 and 160 between Rybnik and Kędzierzyn Koźle with a < at Nędza.

Rybnik - Sumina

[153] (40A1) PL10/19

Trains with a < at intermediate stations run direct; those with intermediate timings use the longer route via Rybnik Towarowy.

Sumina

[153](40A1) PL10/20

Services with a < via PL10/19 booked to call at Sumina use a connection at the Rybnik end of the layout, but non-stop trains can avoid the station via through lines on the north side of the goods yard. As non-stop services have also been known to be routed via Sumina station, further information would be welcomed. Some trains in the 2004 & 2005 timetables were confirmed as travelling by the avoider, and these are the 2010 equivalents.

The north and south-bound lines are up to 0.5km apart and departures from Kędzierzyn Koźle platform 4 to Rybnik and Racibórz must use the route on the west side of the yard. Details taken from 2010 platform departure sheets.

Jarocin

Jarocin station is split with totally separate platforms for tables 320/323 and 321. Cross table service patterns have varied in recent years and information from the 2010 station Departure sheets would be welcomed.

Jarocin 320 side – Radlin Wielkopolski – [Września]

[321] (37A3) PL10/39

No cross table services on/off T321 north are scheduled so there is no use of this north end connection in 2010.

[321] (37A3) PL10/42

There have been no through services over the complete length of T321 for a few years as all trains on this south section ran to/from Poznań Głowny. This meant a section from the station until PL10/40 had no service until a Jarocin starter recommenced passenger use in 2009 as it takes 7 minutes rather than 9 to reach Golina.

SSuX 76820 06:50 Jarocin – Wrocław Głowny

Szczecin Główny eastern approaches

[361] (31A2) PL10/47.1

There are alternative routes from Szczecin Zdroje, the shorter via Szczecin Port Centralny, the longer via Regalica - Dziewoklicz - Wstowo. Basic pathing is indicated by a < at Port Centralny for trains scheduled via the longer route but operation is flexible.

Szczecin Główny western approaches

[368/369] PL10/47.2

There are three possible routes from Szczecin Gumieńce, the shortest direct but single track, the second via the southern loop via Wstowo - Dziewoklicz - Port Centralny or via Szczecin Wzgórze Hetmanskie. In the current timetable schedules vary from 5-6 which is insufficient time for the southern loop so all should run direct to/from Szczecin Gumieńce.

Szczecin Załom – Szczecin Zdunowo (SDA box)

[360/370] (31A2) PL10/48

This north-to-east curve avoids Szczecin Dąbie.

E 83506 Świnoujście – 19:25 Goleniów – Kraków Glówny

Poznań Franowo

Poznań Franowo is a large marshalling yard and depot on the south freight ring around Poznań. There had been diversions since March 2007 due to extensive engineering works on the main line but now completed only limited use remains. There were two eastbound routes to reach T300 and T430, either remaining on the north side of the yard or a southside route from p.odg Pokrzywno, splitting past the locomotive depot so that those to/from T430 used a flyover towards p.odj Zieliniec and those on T300 used a line outside this flyover [not shown on Ball or Quail maps] towards Swarzędz. The north side of Franowo Yard route runs via the platforms used by the staff trains prior to withdrawal approx December 2006. Which route the eastbound 2010 service takes is not known but all westbound services travel on the north side of the yard.

[Poznań Głowny – Poznań Starołęka– Poznań Franowo – Poznań Swarzędz

[300/Ex 398/300] (37A3) PL10/49.1

Travelling this way avoids a reversal in Poznań Gł

No scheduled use in 2010 after the pair of Warsawa – Szczecin IC’s shown in the 2009 timetable were re-routed to call at Poznan Glowny in January 2009.

Iława

[400/405/500] (33A2 not shown correctly) PL10/51

There are two routes between Iława station and Działdowo, the Malbork – Warszawa main line diving under the Toruń – Olsztyn line from the north side and a curve from the yard and south side platform. Trains to and from Dzialdowo cannot reach south side platform 3 from the north side curve and the 2003 departure sheets showed use of Platform 3 by three scheduled trains to/from the south on table 400. By mid 2007 there are no similarly timed services so 2010 departure sheet information would be welcomed. It should be noted that is possible to use the south side curve to/from all platforms, but the north side route is the normal route. Olsztyn - Iława - Malbork services use connections at the Olsztyn end of the station to cross to the north side platforms.

Toruń Główny – Suchatówka (Nieszawka)

[405] (32B1) PL10/52

There are two routes: the more northerly climbs over the Bydgoszcz line, the alternative passes through Toruń Kluczyki station. Trains timed at Toruń Kluczyki must use the southerly route, but in practice other trains use either route.

[Inowroclaw] – Nowa Wies Wielka – Bydgoszcz Wschod – Bydgoszcz Głowny

[Ex 416/430] (32A1) PL10/53

No scheduled use in 2010.

Bydgoszcz Wschod – Maksymillianowo

[Ex 420/430] (32A1) PL10/54

This line avoids a reversal in Bydgoszcz Głowny.

E 35509 Krakow Głowny - 23.58 Torun Głowny - łeba/Hel
E 535085 łeba/Hel - 02:17 Laskowice Pomorskie - Kraków Głowny

Tczew - Rokitki Tczewskie

[426] (32B2) PL10/55

There are alternative 2km routes approaching Tczew at ground level or on a lengthy embankment over the goods yard access lines. Arrival routes cannot be confirmed as all platforms can be reached from the ground level line but departures from Platforms 1 & 2 must use the ground level route. Through trains to and from Gdynia probably use the high level lines to reduce conflicting movements.

Wierzchuchin

[428/431/440] (32A2) PL10/56

When two tables were combined, through services were introduced between Chojnice and Bydgoszcz using a slip diamond where the two lines cross on the level approximately 0.5km north of Wierzchuchin station. There is one “non-standard” service using this diamond in a different direction.

SSuX 90441 Szlachta - 08:25 Zielonka Pomorska - Laskowice Pomorskie

Gdynia Stocznia

[450/451 & 452] (32B3) PL10/57

The SKM local and main lines take separate routes with Gdynia Stocznia station on an elevated section flying over freight lines leading into the docks. Those avoiding this elevated section are shown with a < on table 452.

Gdynia Glówny – Rumia

[450/451] (32B3) PL10/58

Some trains from Hel on table 450 in previous years have not crossed to the main lines at Rumia, but run via a separate line shown on Quail on the East side of Gdynia Chylonia EMU depot and run on the east side of the SKM local lines. Nearing Gdynia they used a connection down to join lines from the PKP locomotive depot, carriage sidings and docks and a dive-under to arrive at platforms on the west side of Gdynia Glówny. Part or all of this route may also apply to departing trains, but which if any are scheduled this way in 2010 is not known.
