The train journey from Warsaw to Lublin was good overall. I travelled first on the **IC 1622** to Wroclaw and then on the **IC 56** to Lublin. Both trains were clean and the staff were friendly. What was particularly positive was that the trains were on time and the comfort on board was pleasant. However, I had to change trains in Wroclaw and wait about an hour for the connecting train, which extended the total journey time to around 7 hours. This extra time was the only drawback, but otherwise the journey was pleasant.
