Latający Wilnianin

Latający Wilnianin (English: Flying Wilnianin[a] ) was the popular name of a passenger train which in the interbellum period linked Warsaw with Wilno (now Vilnius in Lithuania). Another name for that train was Gwiazda Północy (The Star of the North).[1]

In 1919, it took around 20 hours for a train to cross the distance of 423 kilometers between Warszawa Zachodnia (Warsaw West) and the station in Wilno. In 1939, this distance was crossed in 5 hours and 45 minutes. In the summer of 1939, the fast train left Warsaw daily at 9:05 to arrive at Wilno at 14:50.[2] A second daily train between the two cities left Warsaw West at 16:41 and arrived at Wilno at 22:31.[2]

The trains, both of which finished routes at then-border station of Turmont - Zemgale, Latvia, stopped at the following stations:

gollark: You know, this is much more complex than osmarkspythonbuildsystem™, and is it even concurrency?
gollark: Obviously dale should assimilate osmarkslisp™, but make it a lazily evaluated purely functional programming language.
gollark: Oh bee oh apioform. Tom Scott CANNOT be incorrect.
gollark: Under the FSG™ system, you have to explicitly register an idea, and when you do so it is erased entirely from everyone else's mind via our nanobot networks.
