EU rail gauge: Preliminary work on restoring a 20 km section of EU narrow track to connect Uzhhorod with Chop, the Ukrainian border town with rail ties to Hungary and Slovakia. By rebuilding this Hapsburg-era section of track, an $18 million project, Uzhhorod, the largest city in Zakarpattia, would become a transportation hub for trains to Bratislava, Budapest, Belgrade, Bucharest, Munich, Prague, Sofia and Vienna, says Oleksandr Kava, deputy Finance Minister.
