"By December 2016 all the tickets, station names, announcements and information on board will be only in Ukrainian and English!" he wrote on his Facebook page.
In addition, Omelyan recalled that work on the so-called decommunization of railway station names is under way.
"It will not happen overnight, but it will certainly take place. Watch this space!" he said.
Omelyan cited upcoming quality upgrades of Ukrainian railways which he said "will help to get rid of dusty cushions and blankets".
His optimistic remarks came as Ukrainian experts said that the country's railway stock wear-out rate exceeds 90 percent, while the degree of wear related to railway infrastructure stands at 97 percent, according to RIA Novosti.
Hundreds of locomotives, which were built in the 1950s and the 1960s, are still used in Ukraine, RIA Novosti reported.
Earlier, Ukrainian Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman said that the country's road sector remains in a critical condition, urging the Infrastructure Ministry and State Road Agency of Ukraine to rectify the situation.
The legislation prohibited Communist and Nazi propaganda in Ukraine, requiring all the country's towns and streets named after Soviet statesmen to be renamed.
In early October, Poroshenko said that he is "very proud" of the large-scale process of decommunization in his country, which he previously described as "a matter of national security."
