PKP is looking to increase the number of new InterCity trains this summer

Also, there will be three new IC trains connecting Warsaw with Katowice, and three IC trains on the route between Gdynia and Krakow. In order to introduce these changes PKP needs to purchase new trains. The board of PKP is discussing the matter with Fiat Ferroviaria which won the tender for sixteen "Pendolino" high-speed trains . The trains will cost $220 million, and are to be financed by leasing. The contract is expected to be signed next month. (Rzeczpospolita, page 12)
