Ukrzaliznytsia resumes train traffic in Carpathian direction after track repair in Rivne Region

Railway train traffic in the Carpathian direction has been resumed after empty freight train cars derailed in the Rivne Region, and as of now, all trains are running on schedule. Ukrzaliznytsia reported this on Facebook.

It is reported that 5 flights were delayed overnight for transfers.

"Thanks to the efforts of the drivers and the high-quality work of the dispatchers, even international connecting flights were brought back on schedule," Ukrzaliznytsia said.

Ukrzaliznytsia also thanked passengers for their patience, and the Kyiv City State Administration for its assistance with buses during the curfew.

As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, a number of passenger trains in the Carpathian direction ran with delays due to the empty freight train cars derailing in the Rivne Region.

For the summer period, Ukrzaliznytsia has added trailer cars to the popular trains on the Kyiv-Lviv-Kyiv route.

This summer, Ukrzaliznytsia is introducing 18 additional pairs of trains to ensure comfortable travel during the season of increased demand.

Ukrzaliznytsia has also scheduled additional trains between Kyiv, Lviv, Odesa and Truskavets in the summer period.
