Polregio
Polregio is a train operator in Poland, responsible for local and interregional passenger transportation. Each day it runs approximately 3,000 regional trains. In 2002 it carried 215 million passengers.
The company was founded in 2001 from the splitup of the PKP Passenger Transport Sector of the once-unitary Polskie Koleje Państwowe national rail operator into several companies to meet European Union requirements.

From 26 May 2006 until 1 February 2014, Polregio also operated an airport rail link service called Balice Ekspres, connecting the John Paul II International Airport Kraków-Balice with Kraków Main railway station with its own fare. The service ceased when the railway line was upgraded and electrified and then taken over by Koleje Małopolskie for its SKA1 line.
For domestic routes IR and RE trains share the same fare for the 2nd class. With the exception of the two above-mentioned RegioEkspres trains, there is no reservation in any of the Przewozy Regionalne trains.
Until 1 December 2008 the company also used to run other 300 interregional and international fast trains, but per the government's decision, the interregional and international fast trains were transferred to its then-sister company, PKP Intercity S.A. and rebranded to "Tanie Linie Kolejowe".
Ownership
Until 22 December 2008 Przewozy Regionalne was a wholly owned subsidiary of the PKP Group, after that date all of its shares have been transferred to the 16 regional governments. Thus, the company is no longer part of the PKP Group and on interregional routes its InterRegio trains compete with PKP Intercity TLK trains.On 8 December 2009 it finally changed its name from PKP Przewozy Regionalne to Przewozy Regionalne, and in January 2017, the company started using the brandname POLREGIO for its services.
