KUIBYSHEV RAILWAY
The Kuibyshev Railway (KR) is one of the oldest railroads in Russia. Its history began in October
1874, when the first Morshansk-Sysran section was opened for regular train traffic.
Much has been changed since that time. Thousands kilometers of new lines have been built;
steam locomotives have been replaced by diesel and electric tractive stock (80 per cent of all traffic is
carried out by means of electric traction, 20 per cent – by means of diesel traction); automatic block
system and Centralized Traffic Control are now being used instead of telegraph train
communication; powerful industrial-technical basis has been created.
At present the KR is one of the largest mainlines of the Russian Federation, connecting its
Centre and West with the major economic areas of the Urals, Siberia, Far East and countries of
Middle Asia. The total operating length of the railway is over 4,800 km, 54 per cent of them is
electrified. The steel lines extend through the territories of seven regions and three republics of the
Russian Federation.
