Plavec (Slovakia - Poland) and Lupkow (Poland - Slovakia)
Apart from the main lines two further international lines offer international
passenger connections between Poland and Slovakia:
Muszyna - Plavec and Lupkow - Medzilaborce.

Beside the national connections to Poprad Tary and Lipnay (- Presov) also eight international
passenger trains are worked between Plavec (Slovakia) and Muszyna (Poland) per day:
two pairs Kosice - Cracow Glowny, one pair Plavec - Krynica and
night-trains Budapest - Cracow.
Both networks are electrified at 3 kV DC, but due to different
signalling systems locos are changed at Presov.

In contrast to Plavec - Muszyna the line between Lupkow (Poland) and Medzilaborce (Slovakia)
lacks of catenary. International trains from Sanok (Poland) to Humenne and to Kosice pass
the border stations surrounded by deep woods. |
