This is one of the first trains, which will run on regular basis between European network and Ukrainian cities like Kiev or Odessa, where HHLA operates terminal CTO.

The project is important for the cargo going to and from Ukraine and is great example of good cooperation between Ukrzeleznitsa and METRANS. Together with Ukrainian Intermodal Company, part of HHLA group, we are happy to offer our clients reliable services, said Martin Koubek, who is responsible for the connections from METRANS network to the countries with 1520mm railtracks.
