On the ground, Mukachevo will become Ukraine’s rail hub for trains to Hungary, Slovakia and Romania, predicts Minister Omelyan. As a legacy of the Austro-Hungarian empire, European gauge tracks reach Zakarpattia’s second largest city. Last fall, Hungarian Railways trains started traveling from Mukachevo to Záhony and Budapest. This year, dedicated trains are to start from Mukachevo to Košice, Slovakia. Next will be trains to Satu Mare, northern Romania. Express trains now run from Lviv, through the new Beskidy Tunnel, to Mukachevo in 3h45 min.
