In August, Ukraine signed a deal with the European Union on harmonising its railways with those of its western neighbours.
A month or so before that came news that a subsidiary of Ukraine’s state railway company had gained a licence to run in Poland.
And back in April, Ukraine’s Prime Minister looked on as the first dual-gauge track panels were laid on a line that will allow standard-gauge trains to run 14 miles into the country to Uzhgorod - rather than having to change gauge at the borders. This ‘Eurotrack’ will run to Chop, meeting railways from both Hungary and Slovakia.
