Journey to Russia's Largest Narrow-Gauge Railway
In this video I'm showing you Alapayevsk Railway - the largest narrow-gauge railway in Russia that is still in use.
This railway was constructed during the late 19th century and early 20th century to serve the local mining and industrial activities in the region. Here are a few interesting points about the Alapayevsk Narrow-Gauge Railway:
The Alapayevsk Narrow-Gauge Railway was initially built in the early 1900s to transport metalwork, timber and other raw materials. It played a crucial role in supporting the industrial development of the region.
As the name suggests, the railway has a narrow gauge track, which means the rails are spaced closer together compared to standard gauge railways (750mm against 1520mm). This design is often used in areas where there's limited space or where the transportation demand doesn't warrant the use of wider tracks.
The railway has become part of the cultural heritage of the region, reminding people of the industrial and transportation history that played a significant role in shaping local communities.
Scenic Route: The railway offers a scenic journey through flat areas near Ural Mountains, passing through picturesque landscapes, forests, and small villages. This makes it not only a transportation route but also an enjoyable way to experience the natural beauty of the area.
Like many historic railway lines, the Alapayevsk Narrow-Gauge Railway has faced challenges in terms of maintenance, funding, and modernization. Considering decrease of rural population in the villages that are serviced by this railway, it's still possible to make ends meet for the existing railway network without future plans for its extension.
Enjoy!

However, in just 50 km from Black Sea, most desirable area of millions of Russia, in the mountains of Northern Caucasus, is a narrow-gauge railway that has its own train of life also known as Matrix. It transfers passengers and delivers goods to the villages with no motor roads being a single link between remote settlements and civilization.

Poland - Narrow Gauge freight on the Nowy Dwor Gdanski, 21/10/2010
The Nowy Dwor Gdanski railway is a (nominally) 2ft 6in gauge line running from the standard gauge terminus at Nowy Dwor Gdanski to Stegna and Prawy Brzeg Wisly, both on the Baltic coast and a mere 20 miles or so from the Russian border.
The line is normally served by diesels but, in October 2010, we were treated to a demonstration freight train hauled by their sole remaining steam locomotive, Px48-1907.
We follow the line northwards towards the Baltic and across the operating swing bridge over the River Szkarpawa.
Recorded on 21st October 2010.
