뜻
A high-speed rail vehicle.
문화적 배경
The 'Rail Baltica' project is a major cultural and political talking point. It represents the country's move away from Russian-gauge tracks to European-standard tracks. Lithuanians view fast trains as a symbol of 'European quality'. Traveling by train to Berlin or Warsaw is a dream for many that is slowly becoming reality. Older generations might still associate trains with slow, cold journeys. The 'greitas traukinys' is the linguistic antidote to that memory. In Vilnius and Kaunas, commuting by fast train is becoming a 'cool' alternative to sitting in traffic on the A1 highway.
Check the Schedule
In Lithuania, fast trains are marked as 'Ekspresas' or 'G' on the schedule boards.
Seat Reservation
Most 'greiti traukiniai' require a seat reservation, unlike local slow trains.
