As the electrification works of perhaps the most important railway artery in Lithuania accelerate and they move to the Šiauliai–Klaipėda railway section, the schedules of some passenger trains are temporarily changing. Along with this stage of work, the company has good news for passengers – trains between Vilnius and Šiauliai and Kaunas and Šiauliai will run daily again. And St. During the Easter period, trains will run normally on all routes in Lithuania, so during the long weekend it will be possible to travel around Lithuania by train frequently and comfortably. Danutė Gančierienė, who has been traveling for five years, tells about what is most important for passengers to know during this period.
According to her, due to the intensively ongoing works, the train schedule will be constantly updated – one way the trains will run from March 17, the other – from March 30, and during St. On Easter, passengers will be able to travel on all regular flights: train traffic will be restored on the routes Vilnius-Šiauliai-Klaipėda and Radviliškis-Klaipėda.
“In recent years, railways have been rapidly changing and constantly moving forward. Now is the time to continue another very important and long-awaited change – electrification. For the convenience of passengers St. During the Easter period, on April 6-11, all regular train services will run on the electrified Vilnius-Šiauliai-Klaipėda section with stops in all intermediate towns. True, we always recommend that you book your train tickets in advance – especially on holidays, when many people can’t wait to go to their relatives. It’s most convenient to do it online or in a mobile app,” says D. Gančierienė, a travel attendant at LTG Link.
After the end of St. During the Easter period, trains on the Vilnius-Šiauliai-Klaipėda route will again be able to run for a while only when the electrification works will not take place: in the early mornings and evenings, and on Sundays – as usual. If possible, on certain sections from Mondays to Saturdays, there will also be short-route train journeys with all intermediate stops in the towns between Vilnius and Šiauliai.
“It may be a little inconvenient for our regular guests as well as our customers who only travel on our trains for a few more months – trains will run less often on four routes. While working, I travel and observe the whole of Lithuania from the train window. At the same time, I encounter wonderful and understanding passengers every day. We are grateful to them and look forward to returning to regular train services.
I am happy that in a few years we will be able to go not only to Kaunas, Kena or Traki, but also on all routes organized by the railway section Vilnius-Šiauliai-Klaipėda”, says D. Gančierienė.
