That is an interesting fact about their railways! It's like a blast from the past. I love retro and have always wondered what it feels like to travel before. I will keep this in mind when I travel in Czech and in other places. I love how you framed it to enjoy and it is really up to us whether we act as tourist or traveller. It's not always about the destination but the journey to get there, and I totally agree that connecting with locals is way more rewarding than any travel guide. 🚂✨
The cars are rather modern, yet the trains are slow and not really reliable when you need to be on time.
It is rare to see them co-existing nowadays. It is cool but when you put it that way, it is really morr suitable for travels that has no time constraints. 😅
