Project Status:
The railway line Inskaya - Chulymskaya is a section of the West Siberian railway.
In the late 1940s, Lentransproekt (since 1951 - Lengiprotrans) received an assignment to urgently design the electrification of the site. The project and working documentation were issued "for a shovel" - the developed drawings were agreed and immediately transferred to the construction site.
The riveted lattice supports of the contact network, dismantled in Germany, were sent to this section. However, the material was not suitable for the Siberian climate. The supports were urgently replaced with domestic ones, and the site was put into operation on schedule.
