Railway Day in Spała takes place on Saturday 26 September 2026 in the Łódź region. It forms part of the Polish State Railways centenary and the Year of Polish Railways.

Announced programme

PKP announces a memorial stone dedicated to Ignacy Mościcki, an anniversary mural and a commemorative stamp launch. The event aims to introduce visitors to different aspects of railway activity.

Admission and the special train

Event admission is free, according to the organizer. PKP Intercity also announces its special “Nieśpieszny” train on sections linking Warszawa Główna, Spała and Łódź Kaliska. Journey details and tickets should be checked separately with the operator.

Planning a family visit

Our practical suggestion: free event admission does not imply free transport. Work out the return journey and the route from the station before leaving. Families may find it helpful to agree a meeting point and leave space in their plans for a break.

Keep the official programme link available on your phone for any timing updates. We have not added unconfirmed attractions or assumed that seats remain available on the special train.
