We study quantum transport across an open quantum system connecting two finite reservoirs initially prepared with a finite particle number imbalance. The equilibration process of the reservoirs leads to a non-stationary current which vanishes once a global equilibrium condition is reached. This behaviour has been experimentally observed in quantum transport setups of fermionic ultracold atoms, with tunable interparticle interactions [1]. We devise a theoretical model based on a set of coupled quantum-classical master equations, describing the evolution
of the system together with the temporal variation of the particle number in the reservoirs. We apply this formalism to investigate nonstationary bosonic currents across a one dimensional Bose-Hubbard lattice.
