Train Schedule Adjustments Due to Weather Conditions
Severe weather conditions in the Transcarpathian region, as well as in Slovakia and Hungary, have resulted in significant changes to the schedules of international and domestic passenger trains. Some services are delayed, and passengers from abroad are being transported to Ukraine by replacement buses.
This was reported by Ukrzaliznytsia.
The company stated that due to the inclement weather, railway companies in Hungary and Slovakia are 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 duration of delays and further departures will be determined after the buses arrive and in coordination with the dispatchers of the three countries. The company warns that further changes are possible, especially in Hungary.
Additionally, the bad weather has damaged the overhead contact line near Barkasovo and Skole. As a result, delays are anticipated 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 collect all schedule deviations on the uz-vezemo portal. We apologize for any inconvenience and assure you that we will transport everyone safely," – emphasizes the company's press service.
