This list is based on the service valid at 31 December 2009, with the last major revision to timetables having occurred on 13 December 2009. CP no longer publish a national railway timetable, so the table numbers used (prefixed TCE) are those in the "European Rail Timetable" published by Thomas Cook.
This list is based on the service valid as at 15 December 2018. CP's timetable periods nominally coincide with those in the rest of Europe, but in practice timetables are changed on an ''ad hoc'' basis, often with little notice.
