my next train, or rather coach, 111A-30 combo car (iirc one of the two without 4AN bogies) in IC 65102 "Mamry" to Olsztyn Główny, going as far as Poznań Główny in this one
and some people got caught by the weird numbering scheme of polish trains as in, trains have two numbers, so this one has numbers 65102 and 65103, and everything besides tickets is using 65102, while tickets use 65103 for some reason why the numbers? it depends on which track the train goes on (yes), if the kilometers go up, it's using the even number, if they go down = odd number, and train can technically change the number infinite amount of times
short break in żabka (macie takie w Warsie? nie macie) and a "door-to-door transfer" later, I am already in next 111A-30 this time in train IC 17101/87101 "Strzelecki" to Gorzów, currently with a yet another EU160 pulling the train, and we will split from train 17101 towards Zielona Góra in Zbąszynek onto unelectrified tracks to Gorzów traewelling.de/status/3817205
(why 111A-30? besides it having better/quieter bogies than most of the train, it also has mostly unreserved seats in form of a 2+2 table seats that are reserved for eventual cyclists, and since I don't do reservations today, yeah, these are nice)
so, the main street (shown above) is a mix of some old German buildings, Gomułka commie blocks, 90s postmodernist "buildings", and some new development and everything is Everywhere
@amie@ShadowJonathan yeah there will be like a week of light snow now, and then nothing until February, when there's gonna be a bunch of heavy snow for next 2 days
