Warszawa Wschodnia
THE STATION IS CURRENTLY NOT OPERABLE.
Warszawa Wschodnia is currently one of the most important passenger rail stations in Poland. Several rail routes with the status of transport corridors, such as the E20 and E65, intersect here. In addition, it is also a very important link in the Warsaw Railway Junction, serving, among other things, all long-distance traffic on such routes as Poznan, Gdansk, Lublin, Siedlce, Bialystok and suburban traffic on the cross-city line. In terms of the number of travelers, the station qualifies as one of the busiest in the country. As many as 7 platforms are used to serve travelers, with a total of 14 platform edges. The station is divided into two regions: long-distance and suburban. Two station buildings also function here, located at the ends of the central underpass. A total of 3 passageways function here, with one (the western one) serving only the long-distance platforms.
In the long-distance part of the station, two tracks leading from the Warszawa Centralna station diverge here in several directions: Warsaw Praga (and further to Gdanski Station, Gdanski Glowny as line 9 north), Warsaw Antonin (where the long-distance tracks branch off in the direction of Lublin, and slightly further to Białystok and Siedlce). There is also a connection to the Warsaw Grochów station, which shunts the depots of most passenger trains that start running at East Station. A 3-track track leads to the station from Antoninov, while in the direction of Grochow and Praga the tracks are double-track. Traffic here is controlled by one signal box "WSD", which has relay equipment. The track system consists of 9 tracks at five platforms, as well as a "preliminary" group of several tracks, located on the Grochow side.[1]
