P7050037.JPG (425263 bytes) The first train between Harrachov and Szklarska Poreba went after 47-year pause in the year 1992 (see illustrational photo from 1994). A lot of words about the traffic renewal was said, but in the Polish time-table the rides at the 100 anniversary are ment as  "adrenaline" ones.
