Toruń is as far as I will go today. The main station is on the wrong side of the river, though, so would involve a twenty minute walk. Or, if you are lazy and/or booked yourself a room right behind Toruń Miasto station, you could take this suspiciously familiar looking thing for two minutes.

Toruń strikes me as worth spending a bit more time at then arriving after night fall and leaving after breakfast. Very pretty old town with lots and lots of churches.

It is also the birthplace of one Nicolaus Copernicus, inventor of the quantity theory of money (and maybe some other things).

Good morning! Before we continue our journey east, here’s the crossing of the river Wisła which was hidden in the dark last night.

One thing that is cool about eastern Europe is that everyone used the same basic signalling system. So I can tell you that we will be leaving with 40 then line speed without knowing Polish rules.

Quick transfer in Olsztyn where they have a shiny new (if a bit sterile) station building.

The aforementioned Copernicus worked as an administrator here, so they named the new station for him.
