Carrying capacity of

Russia’s Far Eastern rail system

at the end of the year

in millions of tons

 

 

 

The carrying capacity of the rail system in Eastern Russia is 180 million tons.

 

784.1 km of additional main and station tracks have been laid.

 

Construction and reconstruction:

 

  • 4 stations;
  • 537 artificial structures.

Services have begun along the new 6.7-km Baikal tunnel, at Taishet, Taksimo, Tynda and Smolyaninovo stations, along the second main tracks on the 21-km Kytykan – Kuvykta and 8.6-km Dyuanka – Toki sections, and the two projects Construction of a Double-Track Insert on the 4.8-km Tyya – Seberobaykalsk section and the Construction of a Double-Track Insert on the 4.2-km Kirenga – Okunaisky section at East Siberian Railways.

 

In 2024, on the date of the 50th anniversary when the construction of the Baikal-Amur Mainline began, a ceremonial opening was heold to mark the beginning of train services on the double-track insert on the Ulak – Verkhnezeysk section and on the second main track on the Dyuanka – Toki section. The tunnel was connected to the bypass of the Shkotovo – Smolyaninovo section.

 

Train services began on the second main track between the Lyudyu siding at 323 kilometres and the double-track insert on the Purikan – Murtygit section.

 

A ceremonial laying of a symbolic Golden Link was carried out at the double-track insert on the Kuanda – Kuandinsky section with a junction with the Kuanda station of the East Siberian Railways’ facility, which connected the western and eastern parts of the Baikal-Amur Main Line.
