By rail

Railway line No. 4 (Warszawa Centralna - Katowice), 96 km from Warsaw Central, the next station is Koluszki 106 km. This is the former Warsaw-Vienna Railway, the earliest in the Kingdom of Poland, the first section of which was built in 1845, and on December 1, 1846, the section from Skierniewice down Czestochowa.

There is also a historic starting station in Rogów Narrow-Gauge Railway Rogów - Rawa - Biała leading from Rogów through Rawa Mazowiecka down Biała Rawska. It was built in 1914-1915 as a military field railway by the German army during World War I in order to supply the front with food, weapons and ammunition, and to transport wounded German soldiers. After Poland regained independence, the railway was taken over by the Polish State Railways and thus survived until 2001, when PKP decided to liquidate the line.

The queue was saved by volunteers, fans of the narrow track from the Polish Narrow Gauge Railway Foundation. It has been under their management ever since. For 6 years, part of the historic rolling stock has been renovated and tourist transport has been resumed. There is an exhibition of narrow-gauge rolling stock at Rogów Towarowy Wąskotorowy station. Thanks to the involvement of the Foundation's volunteers and the local community, a museum room was created in the former Warehouse No. 1 building at the Rogów Towarowy Wąskotorowy station, documenting the history of the Rogowska Railway.
