The Pendolino Prędkości (PP) is a network of high-speed railway lines in Vistulzka. It is owned by VHK Railways and is operated as its own independent national service under the oversight of VHK Railways. The Pendolino was originally built as an experimental method to stimulate economic activity between Ásotthalom and more distant regions of Vistulzka. Certain section of the Pendolino, specifically within Asotthalom and Welnica have been adapted for commuter usage.
The first line put into usage was the Nova Karpatskan Pendolino in 1967, which connected Lybid and New Pereya with Włocławek and Ásotthalom. The service was seen as a huge step for public transportation, with the Pendolino lines being constructed under the oversight of the Department of Infrastructure. The network has since expanded to have a station in each of Vistulzka's 51 voivodeships and major transit hubs in seven voivodeships.
The Nova Karpatskan Pendolino is still the busiest line used within the service and is one of the world's busiest high-speed rail lines. It directly connects the top five most populated metropolitan areas within Vistulzka, connecting Lybid, New Pereya, Wełnica, Włocławek and Ásotthalom.
