Unit in reality

On 30 May 2011, the Polish State Railways PKP signed a contract with Alstom for 20 Pendolino ETR 610 trains. These new trains, known as Pendolino ED250, were purchased with the intention of operating them on several major backbone routes, including between Gdynia and Warsaw, on the CMK Central Rail Line high-speed line from Kraków/Katovice to Warsaw and from Wrocław to Warsaw. On 12 August 2013, the first ETR 610 train was delivered.

The high-speed tests with the new train set took place largely on the CMK central railway line; on 16 November, the first day of the tests, the Pendolino reached a speed of 242 km/h. On 17 November 2013, a new Polish Railways speed record was set when the Pendolino ED250 reached a speed of 291 km/h, breaking the previous record of 250.1 km/h (155.4 mph) set 19 years earlier. On 24 November 2013, on the last day of testing on the CMK central railway line, the Pendolino reached a speed of 293 km/h.[1]
