The very last day - a photo on Flickriver

The very last day

            EU07-015 with a very long long-distance train of PKP Intercity awaits departure at Łódź Fabryczna.

The picture was taken on the last day of the station before it was closed down and a complete reconstruction started. For a long time it was the most ugly, dirty and hated place of Łódź with the highest population of hobos aswell as suspicious individuals.

Times have changed and so did the railway station, after 5 years of reconstruction (more than a year of delay), the station has been moved underground and received a complete overahul. In the future it is planned to connect to Łódź Kaliska via a tunnel leading under the city center, which will substantially help to solve the problem of transit traffic in Łódź. Currently the trains have to go around the city via Łódź Chojny, located very far from the center, and collide with freight traffic.
