Y train services withdrawn from 27 March 2016

The Ministry of Transport and Communications and VR Group have today informed HSL about their decision to withdraw Y train services and merge H and R trains into one R train line. The changes will take effect on 27 March 2016.

The withdrawal of Y train services will decrease service supply on the coastal line and in particular in Kirkkonummi. HSL is looking at alternative ways to replace Y train services in the HSL area.  

“The Ministry’s decision to withdraw Y train services will incur additional costs to HSL. In practice, these costs will be paid by HSL's member municipalities,” says HSL Executive Director Suvi Rihtniemi.
