Playing chess, analysing chess and talking chess with other chess players, all that while visiting some of the most beautiful European cities. A most attractive idea. That's why the Czech tournament organiser Pavel Matocha contacted the Czech railroad company and organised the "Chess Train Tournament". A fine idea well executed - no wonder that previous participants of this chess journey were enchanted.
In 2014 the chess train will roll again. On October 10th the journey begins in Prague with a trip to Budapest. After stops in Trencin and Krakow the trip will end on October 14th in Prague again. On the way and on the train the participants will play a 12 round rapid chess tournament. A unique experience and a unique tournament.
