Konin–Pątnów railway (since 2013, Konin–Pątnów siding route, track 1P) was a non-electrified, single-track local railway with a length of 9.213 km. Until 1996, the line extended to Kazimierz Biskupi (total length of 14.226 km). In mid-1974, the first scheduled passenger train operated on the line, with passenger traffic continuing until May 1996. Since then, only occasional freight traffic has occurred. The original purpose of the line was to connect Konin's industrial districts with the city center. In 2013, it was removed from the PKP Polskie Linie Kolejowe railway register and converted into the Konin–Pątnów siding route, track 1P.
