That’s how my collection of vehicles started, first these were war ones, now there are also old civil vehicles.” On 6 August 2010, I have been issued the certificate making my collection a Private Museum of the Military and Old Vehicles by the Minister of Culture and National Heritage. Since then, I have been running my own museum with 38 military vehicles, 4 police cars, 5 ambulance cars, 16 fire brigade cars and 16 civil cars.” Source: http://muzeumrakszawa.pl/O_NAS.html

The route is said to be the most beautiful one as far as the narrow rail is concerned, for it presents to you all the possible landscape forms. We start our journey in the valley of the Wisłok river, then we take long and straight distances between the field, we go past two long bridges of steel. Having left the middle station, we go past an artificial reservoir where you can swim in summer, then the tracks go along the way between Przeworsk and Dynowo. Sometimes, the tracks go along the housing districts, close to the houses, so we feel as if we were going through somebody’s garden. There are sharp curves and high driveways. It means we go pass Jawornik Polski. Then we go through a forest, through a tunel, finally we see the beautiful view of the Pogórze Dynowskie. The railway leads us down to the San valley with large curves, a stone bridge and lots of farming fields. Source: http://pogorzanin.powiatprzeworsk.pl/index.php/historia-kolejki
