Have a nice trip, EuroAntsya!

The youngest residents of Irshava not always can recall the name of this elderly, but respectable lady. Although for their grandparents, the narrow gauge called Antsya was well known, nowadays, a trip by the historic train is a real curiosity. But now, they have such opportunity – a special flight in support of the revolutionary events in the country has been arranged! And the train will go to the west – towards Europe…

The train of the only active narrow gauge railway in Transcarpathia is also called the Carpathian tram – it connects small stations, and also has a considerable social role. The transport was given a woman’s name – Antsya – long time ago. One of the passengers – Vitaliy – says: "The name was given not by one person, but by a lot of people. Antsya of Kushnytsya… A good name! The train was running not only to Irshava, but also to Beregovo and Vynogradiv. And this narrow gauge should be preserved. Because, as they say, it is antique!".
