#Ukrzaliznytsia

A Russian drone struck a suburban train in Mykolaiv Oblast. Thanks to a timely warning from Ukrzaliznytsia's monitoring center, passengers were evacuated before the impact, and there were no casualties.

Railway export of iron ore could shrink by 30–40% due to shelling of seaports. Ferrexpo and Yuzhny GOK have suspended mining, while metallurgical production in July fell by a third.

The Ukrzaliznytsia app has reached 7 million users, and the share of online ticket sales has hit 71% — a record figure among European state rail operators. Over the year, the audience grew by 40%, and 67 million tickets were sold through the service.

"Ukrzaliznytsia" provides round-the-clock free rest zones for military personnel at 22 stations in Ukraine, and a "Chytalnia" lounge with a café, free Wi-Fi, and a library has opened in Kharkiv.

Ukrzaliznytsia put four new coupé and SV carriages into service on the international Helm — Kyiv route, expanding capacity during the peak week of summer. Since the start of 2026, the carrier has received 28 of the 60 planned carriages.

"Ukrzaliznytsya" has approved an updated Privacy Policy, defining the procedure for collecting and protecting passengers' personal data when using electronic services and purchasing tickets.

A paw print marker has appeared in the Ukrzaliznytsia mobile app: now, before buying a ticket, you can see where in the carriage a passenger with a pet is traveling. The function is already working, but not on all routes.

Following an overnight ballistic missile attack on Kyiv and the oblast, Ukrzaliznytsia changed the routes of suburban and regional trains in Kyiv, Chernihiv and Sumy oblasts on August 20, and delayed two services in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast.

🚨 CRISIS IN METALLURGY: The Federation of Metallurgists of Ukraine has warned of the risk of factory shutdowns. 🏭 ⚠️ Main reasons: 🚫 Blockade of sea ports and attacks on infrastructure. 🚆 Increase in "Ukrzaliznytsia" tariffs by 30%. 📉 Consequences: increased cost, loss of competitiveness, threat of mass layoffs. 🗣️ Metallurgists demand the unblocking of ports and the cancellation of tariff increases. "Preserved metallurgy is a preserved economy," the Federation states. #Ukraine #Metallurgy #Economy #Ukrzaliznytsia #Crisis

🚂 "Ukrzaliznytsia" has introduced a new stop at Revaca station for the Kyiv-Chisinau train. Now passengers can get off right at Chisinau Airport! ⚠️ But there is a nuance: the stop works only in one direction — from Ukraine. On the return trip, you will have to go to the station. The decision was made after a successful test in April 2026.

🚆 From August 17, the Kyiv–Chisinau train will change its route! Now the transfer to Chisinau Airport will be faster and more convenient. According to PM Koretskyi, this is the result of agreements between the governments of Ukraine and Moldova. The train, launched in December 2022, will now have a direct line to the airport. #Ukrzaliznytsia #KyivChisinau #Transport
