@Coastway_Will And the stock is getting on a bit as well- despite a not-insubstantial cost, you’re getting a unit with a shorter life, and higher maintenance costs.
Why not jump on the bandwagon?

A great mix of traction at Žilina station yesterday- A Czech Pendolino set departs towards Košice, a ZSSK Panther is about to depart on a local service and the class 362 has just arrived with a fast train from Bratislava.
@who_shot_jgr While there would be some irritating rolling stock upheavals at the start it would be a useful strategy, and any railway in Europe would be able to donate old stock to modernise Ukraine’s fleet.
One of ZSSK’s Gorillas passes a PKP 2-section cargo locomotive at Nezbudska Lučka-Strečno. The section of track the gorilla has just come from is one track only, hence the cargo train had to wait here.
