    I visited Ukraine in July 2023 and i took this train. There was this one in the morning and i took the second leaving L'viv at noon. The train was packed mainly with women who went back to their home towns during summer. So even in these dificult times it is a life line between these big cities. The train was on time, which is usual for ukranian trains and comfortable. I highly recommend the hotdogs in the café as a snack which cost 90 hrivna (~ 2,20€). L'viv and Kyiv are two impressive cities worth a visit. Hopefully peace returns soon to the people over there!

    Hey there, друже (my friend in Ukrainian). I got a lot of joy, seeing your reactions to our different kinds of trains. For your info, previously, our rail network UZ was completely neglected and only recently (starting from 2020) politicians decided to initiate something really serious to develop our rail networks. There going to be the purchase of 30 new high speed trains, a lot of modern coaches and the upgrade of rail construction and infrastructure of the stations. Hope that you will make a new full scale review of Ukrainian new trains in maybe 5 or 6 years, and our rail network will impress you much more (positively). Elektrychkas are a total shame of our country and don’t even know if I should watch your review to them. I will be ashamed AF. But thank you very much for your honest opinion and feedback concerning our rail network. Hope we (Ukrainians) do not look and will not look like savages in the eyes of Western people. Greetings from Poltava (Central Ukraine) 😊😇

    Thank you, nonstop eurotrip! So, two parts: your video and the trip itself. Your video is, as always, wonderful. I really like your way of filming and presenting stations and everything in fact. On the other hand, it's very difficult, for a country I don't know like Ukraine, to get an idea of ​​the trip you took. So several things. First, the station. It's a huge inconvenience for me when there is no lift in a station: it's true, what an idea, with all the luggage and all the health concerns that people may have, heart, respiratory or others, than to put a lift? The elevator is a fundamental point in a station, just like the presence of a fast food chain that I love. I also like the interconnection between train and metro, RER, tramway etc etc. Afterwards, the landscapes that you showed me do not move me at all. I'm not sure what to think of the seats you took. I think the locomotive is much more beautiful than the wagons it carries or the wagon you sat in. I find that the locomotive is very beautiful, 21st century, while the interior dates from the 1970s, well, much older. Finally, I have a mixed opinion on your trip, what. Otherwise, you always film very well and you delight me a lot. A huge thank you to you, nonstop eurotrip. By the way, did you sleep well at the hotel? And Superlabs didn't show up on the train?

      But the 1435mm gauge is standard in most of Europe and the one in former Soviet countries is just 1520mm so not massively more. Yet they are able to put 5 seats next to each other. I guess it’s more to do with horizontal clearances.

      @@NonstopEurotrip Well. 3 weeks on and unfortunately sadly I was proved right. I could see this coming. A useful point is the 5ft gauge is counter to what Ukraine needed, European gauge would be better as it stops Russian trains using the lines and better ables the Ukrainians to supply direct from Europe. Railways were originally designed in Europe with Military supply in mind. and you will find most of the main routes were built with that in mind. Ukraines railways would also have been designed with that in mind. so it will be easy for Russia to use them to supply their convoys

    Isn't Tarpan (Intercity+), completely manufactured in Ukraine, the flagship train now? Capable of 220 km/h but operational up to 180 km/h. When i travelled from Kyiv back to Lviv in 2018 i used it both times. Last time i used Hyundai on this route was in 2017. It's definitely newer, faster and more comfortable than Hyundai. Next time you can take Tarpan to Lviv from Kyiv, maybe its only used for evening routs.

    First class with 2+2 configuration is not good. Die Erste Klasse in 2+2 Bestuhlung ist nicht gut. In Fernzügen sollte ausnahmslos 1+2 Bestuhlung Verwendung finden. Sonst ist der Aufpreis für die 1. Klasse nicht gerechtfertigt. Sind die Breitspur-Wagen wirklich breiter als Wagen mit Normalspur ? Russische Breitspur (1.520 mm) ist nur wenig breiter als Normalspur (1.435 mm). Daraus schließe ich, dass die Wagen nicht oder nur minimal breiter sind als Wagen mit Normalspur.
