Wagon preparation point at Tosno II station

Пункт подготовки вагонов на станции Тосно II

Tosno II is a railway platform of the St. Petersburg branch of the Oktyabrskaya Railway (OZD). Located in the city of the same name, Tosno, Leningrad Region.

In the 1980s, Lengiprotrans developed a project for a station for preparing cars for loading in conjunction with a car repair depot at the station. This was due to an increase in the volume of freight traffic on the OZD.

Design and construction work was carried out in cooperation with Finnish specialists. The most modern equipment at that time was used, some of which were supplied from Finland.

The car repair depot was intended for cleaning and washing freight trains using new technology, as well as for overhauling wheelsets with the replacement of elements.

The work carried out by Lengiprotrans together with foreign specialists was highly appreciated by both our and Finnish experts. At present, the Tosno II car repair depot remains one of the best in the Russian railway network.
