Railway transportation

The region's capital Košice has InterCity and EuroCity connection. The reion is crossed by International corridor No. Va  (5a) which is a part of the international corridor no. V, crosses the region of Košice, connecting Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, Hungary, Slovakia and Ukraine.

Important national railway lines in the region include: west – east transit corridor in the direction Poland – Košice – Hungary. These lines are of standard gauge, with the exception of two broad-gauge lines in the following parts: Slovak Republic state border/Ukraine – Čierna nad Tisou – Combined Transport Terminal Dobrá and Uzhgorod – Maťovce – Haniska pri Košiciach.

There are two intermodal transport terminals in the Košice Region – in the city of Košice and in Dobrá (near Čierna nad Tisou). Both are of strategic importance, as they are located within the Pan-European transport corridors and intermodal transport corridors included in AGTC and their significant intersections.
