what is it?

The Pesa Acatus II (designated as EN77, type 32WE) is a four-car, partially low-floor electric multiple unit (EMU) manufactured in Poland by Pesa Bydgoszcz between 2010 and 2011. Five units were purchased by the local government of the Lesser Poland Voivodeship. Initially, the vehicles were operated by Polregio, and later by Lesser Poland Railways, which have additionally owned the vehicles since 2018.
