Schedule Adjustments Due to Severe Weather
Severe weather conditions in Transcarpathia, alongside Slovakia and Hungary, have resulted in significant changes to the schedule of international and domestic passenger trains. Some services are experiencing delays, and passengers from abroad are being transported to Ukraine via replacement buses.
This was reported by Ukrzaliznytsia.
The company stated that due to the adverse weather, the railway companies of Hungary and Slovakia have been forced to delay the following services:
- №143/750 from Vienna and Budapest;
- №617/964 from Bratislava.
Passengers from Debrecen (Hungary) and Košice (Slovakia) will be taken to the border by replacement buses. Afterward, they will be picked up by train №28 of Ukrzaliznytsia in Chop. The delay time and further departures will be determined after the arrival of the buses and in coordination with the dispatchers from the three countries. The company warns that further changes may occur depending on the situation, especially in Hungary.
Additionally, the severe weather has damaged the overhead line near Barkasovo and Skole. As a result, delays are expected for the following services:
- №9 Kyiv – Budapest;
- №82 Chop – Kyiv;
- №14 Solotvyno – Kyiv;
- №38 Mukachevo – Odesa;
- №749 Kyiv – Chop (with direct cars to Vienna).
"We traditionally gather all schedule deviations on the uz-vezemo portal. We apologize for any inconvenience and assure that we will transport everyone safely," – emphasizes the company's press service.
