What is "comenius"

The Comenius has been the name of two distinct EuroCity (EC) international express trains, both of them originating, terminating or passing through Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic.

Both of the Comenius trains have been named after John Amos Comenius (1592–1670), a Czech-speaking Moravian teacher, educator and writer.

Introduced in 1993, the first Comenius ran initially between Prague and Berlin, Germany. It was later extended from Prague further south, to Budapest, Hungary, and later still extended again, this time from Berlin to Hamburg, Germany. It was discontinued in 2000. The second Comenius was introduced in 2006, and links Prague with Kraków, Poland. <!--
