Here you can change the default search engine settings and introduce changes according to your needs. You can, for example: set up your own transfer time, choose which Carrier you want to use, choose an intermediate station if you want to continue your journey in stages. Your selection will be remembered until the page is reloaded.

The screen presents the retrieved connections according to the search parameters you specified. It presents them in an abbreviated form, limited to only the most relevant Start and End Station Information. If the selected stations are assigned a triangle logo, it means that it is an on-demand only passenger stop. If there is an interchange station (or a wagon switching station), there is an additional pink button „Transfer”/„Direct wagon” that allows you to expand the section of a given connection. The expanded section shows details of arrival/departure times at intermediate stations and, among other things, the train number and the name of the carrier of the transfer train. The section with the description of a given connection also contains a context menu (three dots symbol) allowing to perform basic operations and two buttons allowing to buy a ticket for a given connection and go to the details of a given connection.

By displaying details of a given connection you can access full information on the train route station by station, the description of any possible inconveniences, changes in available services on the train, information about transfer connections and possible cancellations, substitutions or rerouting. By hovering over a station (dot), you can check additional information such as: duration of potential delays, train arrival and departure number, and a list of services on the train. Connection details contain not only the scheduled arrival and departure times, but also the actual and expected times according to the time of search. Remember, the presented minutes of delay and forecasts of arrival/departure from the station/stop are approximate minutes and are subject to change. Therefore, always follow the information provided at stations/stops. The presented length of route, depending on the selected connection, it is: for domestic connections along its entire length, for international connections to the first station outside the Polish. Attention! Follow the platform announcements at stations and stops. The given platforms and tracks are planned stops for the train and they may change depending on the traffic situation at the given station/stop. In special cases the arrival platform and track may be different than the platform and the departure track.

There may be two types of transfer connections in the train path. Transfer connections on the route (available under the „S” button) describe situations when the viewed train is transfer-connected with another train. This means that this train must wait at a given station for another train with the shown number if necessary. This may cause delays. At transfer stations, another case of a transfer connection may be displayed in which the target transfer train is connected to the train being viewed. This ensures that the train will wait a set number of minutes in the event of a delay, thus increasing the likelihood of a successful transfer. Such announcements are displayed in pink text at transfer stations.

On the Connection Data tab, when you expand the section for a particular station, you will see, among other things, information about Disabled Facilities. This data describes existing infrastructure that facilitates access to individual platforms, such as the presence of elevators and ramps. In the event of a failure of any of the infrastructure elements, appropriate information is displayed along with the expected dates of remedying the failure.

Under the Disruptions button in Search Results, the obstructions that have been assigned to the selected train that may affect its delay are shown. Substitute transport information is also shown. With connections, for which the Carrier indicated the stops of the substitute transport, it is shown collectively. The Disruptions button in Connection Details shows the same obstructions with the details of their location, and in the case of substitute transport (if the information has been given by the Carrier) the information about the place of its stop is shown next to each station where the transport is provided.
