From July 17, "Ukrzaliznytsia" will close the Rakhiv direction in Transcarpathia for scheduled repairs. Therefore, until July 27, on working days, trains heading to Rakhiv will go to Ivano-Frankivsk, and on weekends, trains will run to/from Rakhiv according to the schedule.
This was reported in the companyʼs press service, stressing that it is no longer possible to postpone track repairs at the Delyatyn-Nadvirna section.
During the repair works (and in addition, on the Derazhnya-Komarivtsi section), from July 18, flight #255/256 will be additionally assigned another scarce route: Kyiv-Chernivtsi.
Thus, while the carriages of train No. 55/56 will not be able to pass to Rakhiv, from July 16 to 27, they will connect the capital with Bukovyna.
Another additional train will also run to the popular Ivano-Frankivsk this season: No. 226 Zaporizhzhia — Ivano-Frankivsk. So far, the test is on one date — July 12 from Zaporizhzhia, July 13 from Ivano-Frankivsk.
