History edit
The foundation for the first buildings of the Krukiv Railway Car Manufacturing Plant was laid in 1869. As for 1900 there have been working 400 workers, who provided repairs for 120 freight and 20 passenger cars per month.
In 2013, Kryukov Carriage Works was ranked 10th in the rating of high-tech machine building enterprises in Ukraine in terms of management innovations. The main program of the plant's work is the development and production of mainline passenger and freight cars of various types, trucks, spare parts, wheel sets, railway wheels, subways, road construction equipment, escalators, etc.[2]
In January-June 2018, the plant increased freight car production by 69% compared to the same period in 2017. In quantitative terms, this growth is 706 freight cars more, up to 1,728 units.[3]
In July 2018, PJSC Ukrzaliznytsia held a tender for the purchase of 53 new passenger railcars worth UAH 2.6 billion, which was won by Kryukiv Railcar. Under the terms of the tender, the plant is to deliver the cars to Ukrzaliznytsia by July 1, 2019: 21 compartment cars, 20 SV-type compartment cars, 11 cars with a train manager's compartment, and 2 compartment cars for international passenger transportation.[4]
