The Lviv-Odessa train - from the western capital to southern Palmyra
Virtually any western or southernUkraine will say that it does not like to move between these two regions. Go to Kiev - yes, especially in the service needs. But leaving your region for something less attractive - for nothing. And a resident of Odessa will say about Lviv: "There's not even a sea there." For what sake? ". A Lvovyan will complain that without the aroma of freshly prepared coffee, he does not imagine a city, especially if he has practically no history.
Without express trains
In Lviv, the historical center of the city was formedin the Polish Empire, was renewed in the Austro-Hungarian Empire and finally formed in the empire of the Russian Empire. Odessa was never built up by the Poles and Austrians, but twice won a competition for the best planning of its center, because it was built by Italian architects with an eye for the best European examples. And the stations in both cities are beautiful, built in the best traditions of urban development, designed to show their greatness to foreigners coming to the empire.
By the time when in 2012 in Ukraine and Polandthe European Football Championship was held, the railway between the hosting cities of the championship was modernized. On it high-speed expresses were started. Unfortunately, Odessa has passed this honor, so the express message Lviv-Odessa does not exist.
Only three routes
But there are three trains that connectthe western capital of Ukraine and the southern Palmyra. The low number of routes confirms all of the above - there is no demand for transportation between western and southern Ukraine.
Like all other routes, the main train"Lviv-Odessa" under number 026L leaves his native city in the evening, and the next morning he comes to the station "pearls by the sea." Departure - 20:40, arrival - at 8:50 the next day. On the way, the train is ten minutes longer than twelve hours.
Faster than the main train for as long as three minutesmoves along the route one more train Lviv-Odessa. Arrival in South Palmira at 9:44, and departure from the Lviv railway station - at 21:37. True, this train is sent to Odessa via Lviv by transit. The beginning of his glorious path are Chernivtsi. This train under the number 136L is named "Chernomor".
But the record holder for the time spent on the routeis the next train Lviv-Odessa - night. The route 107L, called "Hadzhibey" by the name of the predecessor city of Odessa, is sent out at 0:42, and stays in South Palmira at 12:35. That is, on the way there are twelve hours without seven minutes. And, by the way, this train is also transit, and begins its route in Transcarpathian Uzhgorod.
It should be clarified that the train Lviv-Odessa, as well as Uzhgorod-Odessa, runs daily along the route. But the train Chernivtsi-Odessa from the second of March begins to ply in a day on paired numbers.
