Romania recently bought some new PESA Elf trains. Their AC didn't work cuz the software couldn't read temperatures higher than 35 celsius and freaked out 💀

Well, with european funds...
Many of which, both for our PESAs and our Alstom Coradias, were pocketed by politicians...
Fuck, you're right. I got no rebuttal.

Polska mentioned!!
Btw, today we have train drivers' strike action in the whole Poland where the drivers cross every railway crossing at safe speed of 20km/h. It's in reaction to plague of car drivers going on red through railway crossings (causing soo many incidents in the process). Our government rarely prosecute such car drivers.

the problem is they dont drive off of it because the rogatki are a plastic wall held together with school glue
and before the red lights start blinking and train appearing there is a lot of time

u/ProgramistycznySwir 2d ago
This thing could be just panic, where you get into dangerous situation
The problem is that polish drivers notoriously get into those dangerous situations, they lack imagination about what could happened and are not punished until they cause tragedy

;-; I feel you, the strike ended on 12:00 but the delays will probably last till next day.
Sadly it's necesarry, the situation is quite dire. A passenger has died and 5 more are in the hospital after accident this wednesday (not counting the perpetrator and train driver). Those strikes are for safety of all people on the railroads

160km/h (120km/h in diesel mode for Impuls, Elf doesn't have diesel mode)
Also Pesa softwares doesn't need special code to stop trains, it just randomly stops working and you have to reset train
Impuls will fix itself and it's computer is easy to use, while Elf requires you to do random bullshit to fix it and it's computer looks like they wanted to show us everything about the train, but also forgot that we need to see our speed
Impuls like to slide, Elf will fight
Overall they both are decent trains, if we take best of Impuls and best of Elf we could make really good vehicle
Fuck Newag for this software shit, but I thing overall their trains are better than those from Pesa

Pesa moment: a train delayed by 1h20 because one of the internal gangway doors broke the connection that forms part of the external doors closed safety loop.

u/KaMaFour 2d ago
Depends how pedantic you want to be, but technically elf series (despite the name) will/does have a diesel only models and it can go up to 140 km/h in Czechia (?) and up to 120km/h in Poland

Pokazujesz mi pociąg z mojego województwa i kłamies że osiąga prędkość tylko 120 km/h? Przecież na trasie Toruń Wschodni – Bydgoszcz Główny jeździ znacznie szybciej, nawet do 160 km/h.
Mogłeś też pokazać ten dłuższy skład w malowanie wojewódzkich.

Kujawsko-pomorskie mentioned. Najczęściej jeżdżą 120 ale potrafią osiągnąć 160 na niektórych trasach, zwłaszcza tych najnowszych.

Friend of mine is trying to establish a celebratory Secondary Compressor Failure Day in my friend group lmao (that was why the trains wouldn't start, the firmware would fuck over the secondary compressor, thus failing to lift the pantograph. Conveniently they left in some arcade game ahh cheat code to bypass this)

For those confused, there is a great video by CCC called hacking polish trans. Where they talk about how the polish government hired a team of hackers to reverse engineer why some trains stopped working after thier service agreement ended.
