We were riding in a travel oven, he described riding in a train without air conditioning another passenger

A passenger named Radek Fiala described his extremely uncomfortable experience traveling by train from Prague to Brno on June 28th at 1 PM. The train carriages lacked air conditioning and had non-opening windows, leading to unbearable heat inside the vehicle. The temperature reached 60 degrees Celsius according to his watch, with elderly people and young children present. Despite the critical conditions, the crew provided no information for over an hour. After 1.5 hours, the train stopped at Březová nad Svitavou, where passengers waited for 45 minutes before being able to disembark. The situation worsened when they were advised via a delayed SMS to expect a replacement train, while the emergency line provided little assistance. Fiala expressed concern for the health of the passengers, including a child who appeared unwell. RegioJet's spokesperson confirmed a technical fault involving a short circuit in the heating and air conditioning system, which forced the train to stop at the station.
