Electrification

Chronology of electrificaton of great trans-continental way (1929 - 2002)

Main data source for this page was inconspicuous book with a soft stiff binding, with not very thorough computer make-up published in Risography CNIITEI Railway Ministry, Moscow. This name is "Brief knowledge about development of domestic railways from 1838 to 1990" by compiler G. M. Afonina; and its reviewer was famous V. A. Rakov. In spite of plain of this book, it's sheer invaluable storehouse of knowledge about history of railway lines - there are no another sources with so full information. One just want to say thanks all who collected systematized this information!

1 - Date of putting of electrified section to regular operation, 2 - Section, stations (names are given for moment of putting), 3 - Railway line (names are given for moment of putting), 4 - Length of section in kilometres, 5 - Kind of current and tension in kV (= direct, ~ alternating), 6 - Notes.
Notes (column 6):
A - Section was transfered to voltage =3000 V in 1956. It was temporary dismantled in 1941-42.
