Food Train arrives in Kharkiv and Izium

Local residents are receiving containers with food cooked on the Food Train at the railway station in Kharkiv, northeastern Ukraine, on November 24, 2023. The autonomous Food Train, built and maintained by the Ukrainian Railways and financed by the Howard G. Buffett Foundation, is making its maiden voyage from Kyiv to Kharkiv and Izium. On its first trip, the train is delivering Thanksgiving meals to local residents and Ukrainian emergency workers, paramedics, and police officers working in the region. The train consists of six carriages, including a generator car, a refrigerator car, a cold kitchen car, a hot kitchen car, a car for the crew with a shower and a washing machine, and a luggage car with a 27,000-liter water reservoir, a filtration station, and a pumping station. The Food Train is capable of operating autonomously using its generators and water supply for up to 7 days and can deliver 10,000 hot meals per day to the regions of Ukraine that have sustained serious damage to logistic and power networks across de-occupied territories.
