Diesel Train Ivano-Frankivsk-Vorokhta. Travel and Errands

Trips on suburban trains attract tourists with their convenience and low cost. Travellers move about in large groups and with bulky backpacks, and a suburban train will always have room for groups of any size, as well as space for luggage. The Ivano-Frankivsk-Vorokhta route is quite popular with those who love conquering mountain peaks, and along the way you can already savour the beauty of the Ukrainian Carpathians.

The Evacuation Train. Rescue and a Humanitarian Mission

The evacuation train carries you ever further from your home. Alongside the carriages, villages, fields and forests rush past and fly away. The views beyond the window bring no joy at all, as they would in peacetime on a journey. In the half-darkness of the compartment mothers lull their children to sleep; ahead lies the unknown, but with it a deep faith in Victory and a hope of a swift return.

The suburban train 6441 Kolomyia-Dilove links Prykarpattia and Zakarpattia, the Ivano-Frankivsk and Transcarpathian regions. In 2022 Ukrzaliznytsia rebuilt 20 kilometres of track that runs along the border with Romania on Transcarpathian soil, and extended the Kolomyia-Rakhiv service on to Dilove, with a stop in the village of Berlybash. The first train to one of the geographic centres of Europe was greeted at the Dilove passenger railway point on 26 August 2022.

Regional Train 826 Dnipro-Avdiivka. Without Changing

Ukrzaliznytsia continues to restore rail service in the front-line region. In December 2020, the "Maiak" train Kyiv-Avdiivka No. 135/136 made its first trip on the new route. In June, a new regional train was launched, No. 826 Dnipro - Avdiivka, which linked two neighbouring regions — Donetsk and Dnipropetrovsk. The train runs along a railway whose construction began 140 years ago, in 1881. For almost a century and a half, the Katerynynska steel main line has remained an important railway stretch with heavy traffic.

The Avdiivka-Chaplyne Suburban Train

The suburban train is not a luxury but a means of transport. The electric train does not always keep to the schedule; one has to wait for it. Sometimes the train is uncomfortable, cold, or crowded, but for many of us the suburban train is vitally necessary, and there is no doing without it.

The Pokrovsk-Pavlohrad-Lozova Suburban Train

Suburban trains are not only a transport link between towns, but also a fascinating chance to travel to interesting places on a day off, to feel the union of nature and the steel highway. Trips by electric train have their own features: no crowds, no traffic jams, and the fare is cheaper. The Pokrovsk-Pavlohrad-Lozova suburban train links three regions - Donetsk, Dnipropetrovsk and Kharkiv.
