Odesa region, due to frequent Russian attacks on railway facilities and substations, the local power system has been damaged, resulting in a significant reduction in railway transportation capacity. Ukrainian locals have captured footage of Ukraine Railways using Soviet-era diesel locomotives to tow electrified trains that are stuck on the tracks due to power outages.
Currently, the Russian forces are using "Pansy" suicide drones to fiercely bomb Ukrainian railway facilities. Ukraine Railways stated that 15-20% of the locomotives have been destroyed. Due to the difference between EU locomotive standards and Ukraine's, Ukraine Railways can only collect spare parts from Eastern Europe and Central Asia now.
