Ukrzaliznytsia is launching new regional trains between Kyiv and Korosten
Ukrzaliznytsia is launching four new regional electric trains on the Kyiv–Korosten route and in the opposite direction. In addition, two more commuter trains will begin operating between Kyiv and Malyn.
The new trains will stop, among other places, at the Chopovychi, Shchebzavod, Vorzel, and Lisova Bucha stations. The routes will be served by extensively modernized electric trains, some of which have been equipped with air conditioning systems on a trial basis.
Ukrzaliznytsia noted that since the start of the full-scale war, 54 extensively modernized electric trains have already been put into service on these routes.
