what is it?
The Pesa Link is a family of Polish diesel multiple units developed by the Polish rolling-stock manufacturer Pesa SA, built in Bydgoszcz, Poland. The single, double and triple car units were built, but the manufacturer also plans a quadruple car version. The Pesa Link trains currently operate in the Czech Republic (České dráhy), Poland (Lower Silesian Railways, Greater Poland Railways, and Polregio), Germany (Niederbarnimer Eisenbahn and Deutsche Bahn) and Ghana (Ghana Railway Company Limited).

- Weighs about as much as 15 African elephants (~6 t each).
- 43.7 m long: about 10 cars parked nose to tail.
- Seats 150: 3 full city buses (~50 seats each).
multiple unit: A self-propelled train: motors are spread under the passenger cars, so no separate locomotive.
