Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article is to characterise the sociolect of Warsaw enthusiasts of urban transport, with a particular focus on lexis and phraseology. The author attempts a description of the group of people interested in mass transport as a communication community, analyses the formal characteristics of the sociolect they use, and presents the expressions used by them in an arrangement intended to reproduce the linguistic worldview specific to them, which encompasses urban transport vehicles, vehicle equipment, service names, designations of places and people, as well as events involving urban transport.
