Ukrzaliznytsia is organizing the first spring retro tour along Europe’s longest narrow-gauge railway—the Haivoron Railway—which will take place on March 21, according to the press service.
Ukrzaliznytsia invites outdoor enthusiasts and railway fans to welcome spring aboard the “Haivoron Express,” which will be pulled by Ukraine’s oldest operating steam locomotive, built in 1938.
The tour program includes a ride on a retro train, picturesque views of the Podillia region, traditional Ukrainian cuisine, and a cultural and artistic program. Charity fairs in support of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, featuring local delicacies and handmade goods, are also planned. In total, three tourist routes are planned as part of the retro tour, including narrow-gauge trips from “Haivoron to Khashchuvate” and “Haivoron to Peredbuzhzhia,” as well as a standard-gauge trip to Henrikhivka.
For passengers’ convenience, direct trailer cars have been designated for the “Kyiv–Haivoron,” “Lviv–Haivoron,” and “Odesa–Haivoron” routes.
Tickets are already available via the “Ukrzaliznytsia” mobile app, on the official website, and at station ticket offices. The average one-way fare is approximately 145 UAH for adults and 110 UAH for children under 14
