Rail connects Prague with surrounding towns and villages but it also helps Prague citizens living in suburban areas to get to the centre faster than with traditional public transport. Long-distance routes lead to most major towns and cities in the Czech Republic and to European metropolises.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Regional Transport<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">All railroads leading from Prague are organised by <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/pid.cz\/en\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Prague Integrated Transport<\/a> and <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/pid.cz\/en\/tickets-and-fare\/\" rel=\"noopener\">PIT tariffs<\/a> apply to them. Most regional lines are marked with the letter \u201cS\u201d (on timetables there is an \u201cS\u201d and a two-digit number) \u2013 these are passenger and express trains on Prague\u2019s periphery and some lines connecting individual quarters around the city centre. Thanks to short and regular intervals (about 15\u201330 minutes on the main routes and 30\u201360 minutes on other routes) they provide a fast connection with the surroundings of the capital. They can also be used for travelling in Prague. The \u201cS\u201d lines are linked to modern City Elefant and Regionova trains. Their advantage is that they are also connected to city public transport and public transport tickets (PIT) apply to them.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>National Transport<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Since spring 2013, there have been three transit companies offering their services in the Czech Republic \u2013 <a href=\"\/\/www.cd.cz\/en\/default.htm\">Czech Railways<\/a> have the densest network and their trains will take you to all functioning stations in the Republic, trains of <a href=\"\/\/www.regiojet.com\/en\/\">RegioJet<\/a> or <a href=\"\/\/www.le.cz\/i.php\">Leo Express <\/a>also go to some cities.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You can find a connection and buy a ticket on the website of individual transit companies, at railway stations ticket offices or even on the train. A central search engine is available <a href=\"\/\/jizdnirady.idnes.cz\/vlaky\/spojeni\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>International Transport<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Prague is a place of intersection between three European railway corridors (Dresden \u2013 Bratislava, Nuremberg \u2013 \u017dilina and Berlin \u2013 Linz) and therefore it provides a convenient connection with the whole of Europe. On these routes you can often come across modern train groups such as InterCity, EuroCity or SuperCity categories.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>From the Station to the Airport<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For fast connection between rail services and V\u00e1clav Havel Airport there is a bus line called Airport Express. Buses go from the main station to the airport every half hour.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Links:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul class=\"bullet-links\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mapa.pid.cz\/\">A map of Prague Integrated Transport<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/\/pid.idos.cz\">Transport connections<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/idos.cz\/vlakyautobusymhdvse\/odjezdy\/?changeShield=true\">Timetables<\/a> \u2013\u00a0to print a train timetable of any line from a selected stop<\/li>\n<li><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/\/www.cd.cz\/typy-jizdenek\/jedu-do-zahranici\/default.htm\" rel=\"noopener\">Czech Railways<\/a> \u2013\u00a0information about travelling abroad by train and purchasing a ticket<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/\/www.cd.cz\/vnitrostatni-cestovani\/specialni-nabidky\/airport-express-na-letiste-praha\/-3679\/\">Airport Express<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/\/jizdnirady.idnes.cz\/vlaky\/spojeni\/\">Central search engine of train transport<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prague is the most important Czech railway junction.
