Ukrzaliznytsia Revises Kharkiv-Lviv Train Timetable, Affecting Arrivals in Three Key Cities

Revised Schedule for Train #21/22 Kharkiv-Lviv

According to Главком: Ukraine's state railway, Ukrzaliznytsia, is implementing a new schedule for train #21/22, which runs between Kharkiv and Lviv, effective February 17. The changes are designed to improve convenience for passengers in three regional centers and to facilitate better connections. The adjustments affect both departure and arrival times in the key cities of Vinnytsia, Khmelnytskyi, and Ternopil.

Under the updated timetable, train #21/22 will now depart from Kharkiv at 19:26, a significant change from the previous departure time of 14:27. Its arrival in Vinnytsia is scheduled for 05:40 (previously 00:54), in Khmelnytskyi for 07:32 (previously 02:42), and in Ternopil for 09:14 (previously 04:35). These schedule revisions are a common practice for the railway to optimize service across Ukraine's extensive network.

Enhanced Travel Options for Passengers

In a related move, Ukrzaliznytsia has also launched a new daily train, #213/214, on the Kharkiv-Sumi route. Tickets for all services on the new schedule will be available through the railway's app, website, and station ticket offices. The primary goal of the schedule overhaul is to enhance interregional travel, allowing residents and visitors to Vinnytsia, Khmelnytskyi, and Ternopil to arrive at more practical hours, notably outside of curfew restrictions.

The new schedule also creates a viable connection for travel from Kharkiv to Kamianets-Podilskyi. Passengers can transfer in Khmelnytskyi to suburban train #6383/6384, which departs Khmelnytskyi at 08:05 and arrives in Kamianets-Podilskyi at 11:40. These comprehensive changes aim to significantly increase comfort and convenience for rail passengers.

The timetable adjustments reflect Ukrzaliznytsia's ongoing effort to adapt to passenger needs and improve interregional connectivity across Ukraine.

The updated schedule not only provides more convenient transfer opportunities but also carefully considers limitations related to nationwide curfews. The introduction of the new Kharkiv-Sumi train further demonstrates the railway's commitment to expanding accessible transport services for the public.
