Weekly cargo connection to Ukraine
In cooperation with Ukrainian Railways, ÖBB Rail Cargo Group (RCG), is linking Ukraine to its intermodal network with a weekly round trip between Kiev and Vienna with stops in Budapest (Hungary) and Lviv (Ukraine).
The new train is the first regular, high-frequency intermodal connection between Ukraine and hubs in Central Europe and beyond via the RCG network. Traction in Europe on standard gauge will be provided by RCG from the Ukrainian border.
It will also handle additional logistics such as terminal services, import and export customs and much more. The partner Ukrzaliznytsia will take over on the broad gauge up to the Ukrainian/Hungarian border. (ben)
