Deutsche Bahn to help Ukrainian Railways improve its performance.

Ukrzaliznytsia (Ukrainian Railways) and Deutsche Bahn Engineering & Consulting have signed an agreement which seeks to improve the development of passenger railway transportation, optimize purchasing, and upgrade rolling stock. The German company will help Ukrzaliznytsia to separate passenger and freight traffic and ensure effective management. It’s the “first systematic step towards a complete transformation of railway transportation in Ukraine,” Minister of Infrastructure Oleksandr Kubrakov said.
