Переустройство станции Ленинград-Варшавский

Leningrad-Varshavsky is a former station of the October railway in St. Petersburg, founded in 1853. From here, trains departed for the Luga and Baltic directions.

In 1960-1966, according to the Lengiprotrans project, the station was reorganized in connection with the electrification of suburban traffic on the Leningrad - Gatchina-Baltiyskaya - Siverskaya section. At the station, work was carried out to reconstruct the apron tracks, in which the landing stage was eliminated and the tracks located under it were removed.

After the collapse of the USSR, the railway communication with the Baltic countries weakened, the road began to decline. In the early 2000s, the station was closed, and the Varshavsky railway station was reconstructed into a shopping and entertainment complex.
