Крюківський вагонобудівний завод виготовить 100 вагонів для Укрзалізниці

 

На Крюківському вагонобудівному заводі в Кременчуці розпочали реалізовувати проект на постачання 100 нових пасажирський вагонів для Укрзалізниці. Нещодавно підприємство отримало майже 1 мільярд гривень авансу.

«Тривалий час завод не отримував великого державного замовлення. Нарешті є контракт на виробництво 100 нових спальних вагонів. Терміни, які оговорені в угоді між заводом та Укрзалізницею, будуть витримані. Етап виробництва хотілося б пришвидшити, і, ми впевнені, підприємство підтримає таку ініціативу», — повідомив міністр інфраструктури України Олександр Кубраков під час робочого візиту на КВБЗ.

«Крюківський вагонобудівний завод активно виконує замовлення Укрзалізниці. Уже готові два вагони, які будуть представлені на виставці в Києві під час відзначення Дня Незалежності України. Крім того, 25 кузовів уже розкроєні, близько 18 вагонів зварені, 8 — пофарбовані, а також зібрані 30 візків ходової», — зазначив голова Полтавської облдержадміністрації Олег Синєгубов.

Він додав, що загалом Укрзалізниця та КВБЗ уклали контракт на понад 3 мільярди гривень. «Це одне з найбільших держзамовлень в історії КВБЗ та вагомий внесок в промисловість Полтавщини. На підприємстві працюють понад 4 000 працівників. Після отримання авансу оголошено про відкриття вакансій, щоб завод збільшував свої потужності. Це саме та підтримка вітчизняного виробництва, про яку неодноразово зазначав Президент України», — зауважив Олег Синєгубов. Раніше на КВБЗ неодноразово приїжджали перші особи й обіцяли підтримку та фінансування, але факт залишається фактом: уперше за 20 років велике державне замовлення підприємство отримало саме завдяки Президенту Володимиру Зеленському та нинішнім командам Кабміну, Міністерства інфраструктури й облдержадміністрації, повідомляє прес-служба Полтавської облдержадміністрації.

У найближчі місяці перші вагони будуть поставлені Укрзалізниці, і пасажири зможуть ними скористатися. Загалом цього року, резюмував Олександр Кубраков, на розвиток залізниці України в бюджеті передбачено 4 мільярди гривень. Із них 3 мільярди — на придбання нових пасажирських вагонів, 1 мільярд — на інфраструктурні проекти, які спрямовані на покращення пасажирського сполучення.

The bow of a US Navy cruiser damaged in a World War II battle in the Pacific has shone new light on one of the most remarkable stories in the service’s history. More than 80 years ago, the crew of the USS New Orleans, having been hit by a Japanese torpedo and losing scores of sailors, performed hasty repairs with coconut logs, before a 1,800-mile voyage across the Pacific in reverse. The front of the ship, or the bow, had sunk to the sea floor. But over the weekend, the Nautilus Live expedition from the Ocean Exploration Trust located it in 675 meters (2,214 feet) of water in Iron Bottom Sound in the Solomon Islands. [url=https://kra34g.cc]kraken сайт[/url] Using remotely operated underwater vehicles, scientists and historians observed “details in the ship’s structure, painting, and anchor to positively identify the wreckage as New Orleans,” the expedition’s website said. On November 30, 1942, New Orleans was struck on its portside bow during the Battle of Tassafaronga, off Guadalcanal island, according to an official Navy report of the incident. https://kra34g.cc kraken сайт The torpedo’s explosion ignited ammunition in the New Orleans’ forward ammunition magazine, severing the first 20% of the 588-foot warship and killing more than 180 of its 900 crew members, records state. The crew worked to close off bulkheads to prevent flooding in the rest of the ship, and it limped into the harbor on the island of Tulagi, where sailors went into the jungle to get repair supplies. “Camouflaging their ship from air attack, the crew jury-rigged a bow of coconut logs,” a US Navy account states. With that makeshift bow, the ship steamed – in reverse – some 1,800 miles across the Pacific to Australia for sturdier repairs, according to an account from the National World War II Museum in Louisiana. Retired US Navy Capt. Carl Schuster described to CNN the remarkable skill involved in sailing a warship backwards for that extended distance. “‘Difficult’ does not adequately describe the challenge,” Schuster said. While a ship’s bow is designed to cut through waves, the stern is not, meaning wave action lifts and drops the stern with each trough, he said. When the stern rises, rudders lose bite in the water, making steering more difficult, Schuster said. And losing the front portion of the ship changes the ship’s center of maneuverability, or its “pivot point,” he said. “That affects how the ship responds to sea and wind effects and changes the ship’s response to rudder and propellor actions,” he said. The New Orleans’ officers would have had to learn – on the go – a whole new set of actions and commands to keep it stable and moving in the right direction, he said. The ingenuity and adaptiveness that saved the New Orleans at the Battle of Tassafaronga enabled it to be a force later in the war.

Unity and BrightBuilt factory-built homes share an important feature: They are airtight, part of what makes them 60% more efficient than a standard home. GO Logic says its homes are even more efficient, requiring very little energy to keep cool or warm. [url=https://kra34g.cc]кракен вход[/url] “Everybody wants to be able to build a house that’s going to take less to heat and cool,” said Unity director Mark Hertzler. Home efficiency has other indirect benefits. The insulation and airtightness – aided by heat pumps and air exchangers – helps manage the movement of heat, air and moisture, which keeps fresh air circulating and mold growth at bay, according to Hertzler. https://kra34g.cc kraken даркнет Buntel, a spring allergy sufferer, said his Somerville home’s air exchange has made a noticeable difference in the amount of pollen in the house. And customers have remarked on how quiet their homes are, due to their insulation. “I’m from New England, so I’ve always lived in drafty, uncomfortable, older houses,” Buntel said. “This is really amazing to me, how consistent it is throughout the year.” Some panelized home customers are choosing to build not just to reduce their carbon footprint, but because of the looming threat of a warming planet, and the stronger storms it brings. Burton DeWilde, a Unity homeowner based in Vermont, wanted to build a home that could withstand increasing climate impacts like severe flooding. “I think of myself as a preemptive climate refugee, which is maybe a loaded term, but I wasn’t willing to wait around for disaster to strike,” he told CNN. Sustainability is one of Unity’s founding principles, and the company builds houses with the goal of being all-electric. “We’re trying to eliminate fossil fuels and the need for fossil fuels,” Hertzler said. Goodson may drill oil by day, but the only fossil fuel he uses at home is diesel to power the house battery if the sun doesn’t shine for days. Goodson estimated he burned just 30 gallons of diesel last winter – hundreds of gallons less than Maine homeowners who burn oil to stay warm. “We have no power bill, no fuel bill, all the things that you would have in an on-grid house,” he said. “We pay for internet, and we pay property taxes, and that’s it.”

Today was supposed to be the day that President Donald Trump’s so-called “reciprocal” tariffs on dozens of countries kicked in after a three-month delay, absent trade deals. But their introduction has been postponed, again. The new, August 1 deadline prolongs uncertainty for businesses but also gives America’s trading partners more time to strike trade deals with the United States, avoiding the hefty levies. [url=https://kra34g.cc]kraken ссылка[/url] Mainstream economists would probably cheer that outcome. Most have long disliked tariffs and can point to research showing they harm the countries that impose them, including the workers and consumers in those economies. And although they also recognize the problems free trade can create, high tariffs are rarely seen as the solution. https://kra34g.cc Кракен тор Trump’s tariffs so far have not meaningfully boosted US inflation, slowed the economy or hurt jobs growth. Inflation is “the dog that didn’t bark,” Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent likes to say. But economists argue inflation and jobs will have a delayed reaction to tariffs that could start to get ugly toward the end of the year, and that the current calm before the impending storm has provided the administration with a false sense of security. “The positives (of free trade) outweigh the negatives, even in rich countries,” Antonio Fatas, an economics professor at business school INSEAD, told CNN. “I think in the US, the country has benefited from being open, Europe has benefited from being open.” Consumers lose out Tariffs are taxes on imports and their most direct typical effect is to drive up costs for producers and prices for consumers. Around half of all US imports are purchases of so-called intermediate products, needed to make finished American goods, according to data from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development. “If you look at a Boeing aircraft, or an automobile manufactured in the US or Canada… it’s really internationally sourced,” Doug Irwin, an economics professor at Dartmouth College, said on the EconTalk podcast in May. And when American businesses have to pay more for imported components, it raises their costs, he added. Likewise, tariffs raise the cost of finished foreign goods for their American importers. “Then they have to pass that on to consumers in most instances, because they don’t have deep pockets where they can just absorb a 10 or 20 or 30% tariff,” Irwin said.

High costs are still a big barrier to prospective customers, said Alan Gibson, principal at Maine-based builder GO Logic, where a shell for an ultra-efficient, two-story, 1,400 square foot home with three bedrooms can cost around $600,000. [url=https://trip-scan.top]tripscan войти[/url] Homeowners also need to factor in additional costs, like buying and developing a suitable plot of land, and in some cases, getting access to water, electricity and septic, Gibson added. https://trip-scan.top трипскан вход The way to bring down costs, Gibson believes, is more panelized, multi-family housing. “It can be done so much more efficiently,” Gibson said, “and there’s a lot more repetition” for the developer, making the process faster and less expensive than custom multi-family builds. Goodson, the homeowner in Maine, was able to save big money with his engineering background and penchant for DIY. He installed a rooftop solar system and electrical improvements himself, saving hundreds of thousands of dollars in the process. He wound up spending around $500,000 in all, which he estimates was $200,000 less than he otherwise would have. “It’s a big number to swallow, I’m not making light of that at all, but it’s not that far out of what’s reasonable,” Goodson told CNN. It’s also not considering the long-term savings he will experience with no utility bills. He was also able to take advantage of federal tax credits that reduced the cost of his rooftop solar, which saved him more than $10,000 on his panels. Those tax credits are now endangered with House Republicans’ tax bill. “That was huge,” he said. “It’s fairly unfortunate they’re looking at doing away with it.”

The latest Barbie slays in a chic blue polka-dot crop top, ruffled miniskirt, chunky heels and an insulin pump. She is the brand’s first doll with type 1 diabetes. [url=https://tripscan.biz]tripscan top[/url] Dollmaker Mattel worked with Breakthrough T1D, formerly known the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, to design the doll, which aims to represent the roughly 304,000 kids and teens living with type 1 diabetes in the United States. https://tripscan.biz tripscan top The doll launched Tuesday at the Breakthrough T1D Children’s Congress, a three-day event in Washington that brings in kids and teens living with the condition to meet with lawmakers. This year, they’re asking Congress to renew funding for the Special Diabetes Program, which was first allocated by Congress in 1997. The program’s current funding ends after September. The advocacy efforts have taken on new urgency this year. With so many deep cuts to federally funded projects in recent months, Breakthrough T1D said it’s anxiously watching to see if this funding will be reupped. Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease, meaning the body mistakenly attacks its own organs and tissues. In this case, rough antibodies go after cells in the pancreas that make insulin, an essential hormone that helps the body turn food into energy. As a result, the body doesn’t make enough of its own insulin, so people have to take insulin by injection or though a pump to survive. Type 1 diabetes is typically diagnosed in childhood but can be diagnosed in anyone at any age. It differs from type 2 diabetes, in which people are still able to make insulin but their cells stop responding to it. In addition to the insulin pump that attaches to the new Barbie’s waist, the chestnut-haired beauty has a continuous glucose monitor on her arm – a button held on by a strip of heart-shaped Barbie-pink tape. Her cell phone displays an app that shows her glucose readings. She also has a light blue purse to hold her supplies and snacks to help her manage her blood sugar throughout the day. It matches her shoes, of course.

Job losses But what about the impact of tariffs on job creation? Surprisingly, an increase in import taxes has been found to result in slightly more unemployment across countries. [url=https://kra34g.cc]Площадка кракен[/url] An example provided by Irwin at Dartmouth College points to one plausible explanation — and it has to do with the steeper cost of imported goods. “A number of studies have shown, on net, we lost jobs from the (2018) steel tariffs rather than gained jobs because there are more people employed in the downstream user industries than in the steel industry itself,” he said. https://kra34g.cc kraken ссылка A study by the Federal Reserve Board found that a rise in input costs resulting from US tariff hikes in 2018-19 led to job losses in American manufacturing. The damage from those higher expenses was compounded by retaliatory taxes on US exports, more than offsetting a small boost to manufacturing employment from US tariffs — at least so far, the 2024 paper said. Retaliation by other countries is indeed another danger of pulling the tariff lever. Higher tariffs on American exports would typically raise their prices for foreign consumers, hitting demand for the goods in many cases. When Trump announced new tariffs this year, America’s major trading partners were quick to strike back with their own levies, although the US then agreed a temporary truce with China and the European Union. Costs of free trade While economists generally agree that free trade has benefited the global economy in recent decades, they acknowledge that it comes with certain costs. One is the loss of jobs in communities that are particularly exposed to new competition from foreign manufacturers. That is similar to the impact of technological progress on workers. “Manufacturing jobs as a share of the labor force have come down everywhere. It isn’t a US-specific story,” said Gimber at JPMorgan Asset Management, pointing to automation. He drew a parallel between helping workers affected by higher imports and what is known as a just transition — the idea that the drastic changes needed to move toward a greener economy should be fair to everyone and minimize harm to workers and communities. In both cases, providing workers in impacted industries with new skills or retraining them could be key, Gimber said. Another potential cost of free trade is dependency on far-flung manufacturers. That took on new relevance during the pandemic, which snarled global supply chains, contributing to shortages of products such as face masks and respirators in the US and elsewhere. However, economists do not typically see tariffs as a good way to build up domestic manufacturing, Fatas at INSEAD said, noting that subsidies for specific industries are viewed as a better tool “because they work more directly.” But perhaps the strongest argument in favor of free trade is its importance to maintaining peace between nations. As Gimber’s colleague David Kelly noted in March, closer trade relations give countries more to lose in any conflict.

Rescuers are hailing as a “four-legged hero” a furry Chihuahua whose pacing atop an Alpine rock helped a helicopter crew find its owner, who had fallen into a crevasse on a Swiss glacier nearby. [url=https://tripscan.biz]tripskan[/url] The man, who was not identified, was exploring the Fee Glacier in southern Switzerland on Friday when he broke through a snow bridge and fell nearly 8 meters (about 26 feet), according to Air Zermatt, a rescue, training and transport company. Equipped with a walkie-talkie, the man connected with a person nearby who relayed the accident to emergency services. But the exact location was unknown. After about a half-hour search, the pacing pooch caught the eye of a rescue team member. https://tripscan.biz tripscan top As the crew zeroed on the Chihuahua, the hole the man fell into became more visible. Rescuers rappelled down, rescued the man and flew him and his canine companion to a hospital. “Imagine if the dog wasn’t there,” Air Zermatt spokesman Bruno Kalbermatten said by phone. “I have no idea what would happen to this guy. I think he wouldn’t survive this fall into the crevasse.” On its website, the company was effusive: “The dog is a four-legged hero who may have saved his master’s life in a life-threatening situation.”

Job losses But what about the impact of tariffs on job creation? Surprisingly, an increase in import taxes has been found to result in slightly more unemployment across countries. [url=https://kra34g.cc]kraken tor[/url] An example provided by Irwin at Dartmouth College points to one plausible explanation — and it has to do with the steeper cost of imported goods. “A number of studies have shown, on net, we lost jobs from the (2018) steel tariffs rather than gained jobs because there are more people employed in the downstream user industries than in the steel industry itself,” he said. https://kra34g.cc kraken tor A study by the Federal Reserve Board found that a rise in input costs resulting from US tariff hikes in 2018-19 led to job losses in American manufacturing. The damage from those higher expenses was compounded by retaliatory taxes on US exports, more than offsetting a small boost to manufacturing employment from US tariffs — at least so far, the 2024 paper said. Retaliation by other countries is indeed another danger of pulling the tariff lever.
