Ukrainian and Slovak railway companies reached an agreement on the launch of new Košice - Chop - Mukachevo standard-gauge railway route starting from June of this year.

“We are still cautious about the dates, but the preliminary agreements are as follows: the Ukrzaliznytsia will launch Mukachevo – Košice train in June. A test run on this route will be conducted in a few months — on April 2,” Chairman of the Board of JSC "Ukrzaliznytsya" (Ukrainian Railways) Yevhen Kravtsov posted on Facebook.

According to him, the travel time is expected to be about four hours.

Kravtsov recalled that the Ukrzaliznytsia had successfully launched a standard-gauge railway route to Budapest last year.

“We remain committed to our goal to make Ukrainian town of Mukachevo a powerful passenger hub for traveling in Europe,” he noted.
