Legion Train is an ambitious project of the Czechoslovak Legionary Community. Thanks to it, we can admire a faithful replica of a legionnaire train from the period 1918 – 1920. On the Trans-Siberian Railway in Russia, war operations of the legions took place at that time.

The train has been criss-crossing the entire Czech Republic since May 2015, and its journey will last at least until 2026 thanks to the support of the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Transport. At the beginning of this week, a unique set of 14 reconstructed cars, in which members of our foreign army lived and fought, arrived in Rokycan!
It attracts the attention of visitors of all age groups on the first platform. Daily until Friday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and on both weekend days from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Guided tours always start on the hour (weekdays from 2 to 5 p.m., weekends from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.).
The crossbreed Ben was unlucky for the owner. He has been waiting for a new chance in the shelter for over two years
After Rokycany, the set will go to Pilsen (April 30 to May 5). They follow Klatovy (May 7 to 12). Later this year, the Legiovlak will arrive in Sometimes (October 15 to 20) a Boro (October 22 to 27).
