المعنى
Using a train for transport.
خلفية ثقافية
The 'Bratislava-Košice' line is the most important rail artery. It takes about 5-6 hours and is a shared experience for almost every Slovak. Students and seniors travel for free on most trains, making stations very lively and multi-generational places. The 'Dining Car' (jedálenský vozeň) culture is strong. Having a full meal while the landscape passes is a popular pastime. High Tatras 'Zubačka' (cog railway) and 'TEŽ' (Tatra Electric Railway) are special types of trains for mountain travel.

No 's'!
Never say 's vlakom'. It sounds like you are taking the train for a walk like a dog.
