Driver’s Eye View – Broad Gauge Train - Košice to the Ukranian border - Part 1

Part 1 - U. S. Steel (Košice) to Budkovce. More amazing rail action on this extraordinary RTC tour of Slovakian railways. Broad gauge, standard gauge, parallel running next to our Grumpy Diesel, a massive twin unit electric freight locomotive and a diminutive DMU. This is one of the most unusual rail tours I’ve ever had the pleasure to be part of. Join the crew in the cab of a powerful twin unit Skoda electric locomotive to be part of this unlikely cavalcade, starting out from the U.S.Steel works near Košice and finishing up close to the Ukrainian border. The Kosice - Uzhhorod railway is a single-track 1520-mm (Russian Gauge) railway located mostly in eastern Slovakia. It is used for transporting iron ore from the Ukraine to the steel works near Košice. For much of the route it runs in tandem with the standard gauge railway serving the towns and villages along the way, over a significant part of our journey the two different gauge lines are operated as parallel single tracks, giving this almost unique opportunity for the two trains to run side by side.
