Sekcii Východoslovenské prekladiská patrí v Maťovciach okrem prekládkových
kapacít aj pracovisko preväzovne vozňov. Preväzujú sa v nej
len širokorozchodné nákladné vozne, pod ktoré sa osadzujú podvozky
normálneho rozchodu. Po previazaní podvozkov majú ukrajinské vozne
vstupujúce na Slovensko už po normálnom rozchode prekročenú
nakladaciu mieru. Z toho vyplývajú určité dopravné obmedzenia.
ESTY Section, in Maťovce, includes apart from the transhipment
workplace, also bogie change workplace. Only the broad-gauge freight
wagons are changed here. Broad-gauge bogies of these wagons are
replaced with normal-gauge bogies. After bogie change, the Ukrainian
wagons, entering Slovakia, have exceeded loading norm on the normal
gauge. This may result in certain traffic restrictions.
Jediná širokorozchodná železničná trať na Slovensku vedie z Maťoviec
do Hanisky pri Košiciach. Je dlhá 100 kilometrov a jej výstavbu si vyžiadal
dovoz železnej rudy pre novopostavené Východoslovenské železiarne
v Košiciach. Skúšobná prevádzka na novej širokorozchodnej trati sa
začala 1. mája 1966. Neskôr sa jej priepustnosť zvýšila dobudovaním
ďalších výhybní, elektrifikácia trate bola ukončená v roku 1978. Trať sa
využíva len pre nákladnú dopravu.
The only broad-gauge track in Slovakia runs from Maťovce to Haniska
pri Košiciach. It is 100 km long and its construction was executed
mainly due to iron ore import for newly-built factory Východoslovenské
železiarne in Košice. Trial operation on new broad-gauge track
commenced on May 1, 1966. Later on, its permeability increased
by completion of additional passing-bays, track electrification was
completed in 1978. This track is used for freight transport only.
