Molodechno - Vilnius - Kaliningrad - a section of the former Baltic railway, passing through the Byelorussian SSR, the Lithuanian SSR and the Kaliningrad region of the RSFSR.

Plans were developed for the territories of the following objects:
• Diesel depot of Vilnius station;
• steam locomotive depot of Vilnius and Kaunas stations;
• traction substation at Kaliningrad station;
• fuel warehouse at Chernyakhovsk station.

A master plan of the Kaliningrad station was also developed.
