I know (of course) what EC and IC trains are.
OS trains are some kind of regional trains if I'm not wrong?
But what exactly are RR trains, and what does RR stand for?

For my second question. Is there a site on the internet where you can see what rolling stock that is used on the czech trains? (like http://www.fernbahn.de)
Because I want to make activities for czech routes, but the only czech train-combination I know is the EC train from Praha to Århus H.

I hope you can help me, because I have tons of CD cars, and it would be best if I could make the trains as realistic as possible. :wink:

Hi, the page with rolling stock used on czech trains is this: http://www.zelpage.cz/razeni.php?dotaz=start

When you will be on the page with train, then click on this symbol >> and you will see a name of each peace of used rolling stock.

Some translations:
Osobní vlaky = passenger trains (stay in each station)
Spěšné vlaky = passenger trains, but skip some stations (quicklier)
Rychlíky = fast trains
Trasa = route
Řazení vlaku = ordination of the train

I hope, this will help you.
Lord.
 
Naposled editoval moderátor:
Osobní vlaky = local trains (stay in each station)
Spěšné vlaky = limited trains (quicklier)
Rychlíky = expresses

It's just another translation.
 
Díky za doplnění, ty rychlíky jsem záměrně nepřekládal jako expresses, protože nevím, jak bych potom přeložil Expresy, které jsou na těch stránkách uvedeny hned pod Rychlíky :D . Měj se. Lord.
 
Pelikán: nechcem sa hádať, ale rýchlik nie je Expres ...

Due to some content of your post, I guess you are from Germany. So I will try to explain our categories on categories used by DB. It is somewhat peecky, but i think it will provide a closer look at the purproses of the trains.

Os (Osobný vlak) = RegionalBahn (RB)

Sp/Zr (spěšný - Czech name / zrýchlený - slovak name) = DB RegionalExpress (RE)

R (Rýchlik) = DB InterRegio (IR); former DR used also name Schnellzug (D)

Ex (Expres) = Hard to compare, but the closets is InterRegio (IR); former DR used this category in its original meaning

IC/EC (Intercity / Eurocity) = same meaning as DB InterCity/Eurocity (IC/EC)

SC (SuperCity) = special category on ČD (Czech railways) used for only a pair of high comfort, first class only, non-stop services between Praha and Ostrava.
 
Thank you so much for the info. Actually I am from Denmark, which explains why I'm not an expert on czech trains. We only got one single train with 5 czech coaches going from Århus/Fredericia to Praha hl.n. :D I know about the german trains, so I understand your translation. You sure have many diffrent train types. So, another question. I see that some R-trains have sleeping-cars attached to them. Are they called anything speical, or just R? because normally nighttrains have their own symbol/name. Like in Denmark, our night trains were called "InterCityNat"

Again, thanks for your help.
 
Well, little miss :) No, trains with sleeping cars have no special category, they are usually R-Category. As you may see, majority of higher-class trains have they own names like Vltava, Vindobona, Antonin Dvorak, Slovenska Strela, Cassovia, Laborec, Hutnik, (all names in czech/slovak) ...
 
JOHNZ: To je v podstatě volný překlad. To jsou pojmy, ktery si mlhavě pamatuju z Railroad Tycoona. V americe asi opravdu používají pro rychlík název express, ale je jenom dobře, žes uvedl přesné názvy v Německu. Toto je jenom velmi obecně a já nejsem bůhví jakej machr. Takže je to tvoje uvedení to nejlepší co mohl někdo poradit a já se nakonec taky rád přiučím.
 
Yes, the page is out of order just for short time (I hope)......probably some troubles with payments to the provider :D . Lord.
