PKP Warsaw Central – Swarzędz. Train timetable

EIC and IC trains operate on the Warszawa Centralna–Swarzędz route, with the fastest taking more than two hours to cover the distance. Journey times vary widely, from more than two hours to more than five hours, because some services require a change, for example at Kutno or Poznań Główny.

You will usually pay from around PLN 50 to around PLN 70 for a full-fare ticket on this route. The amount mainly depends on the train category – a faster train will increase the price more than a slower one. A traveller planning a journey in August, when passenger traffic departing from Warszawa Centralna rises noticeably, benefits from checking the current ticket offer on PolishTrains (polishtrains.eu) before seats on the selected service sell out.

Anyone looking for a seat with booking certainty can select a specific service together with the train category on PolishTrains (polishtrains.eu) at the purchasing stage. Pendolino accounts for a minority of journeys, so a traveller to Swarzędz chooses between a longer journey at a lower price and a shorter but more expensive EIC journey. Some services run without a change, while others go via a connecting station such as Pabianice, which is worth considering when planning a connection with the exact waiting time.
