Kaliningrad Railway (Russian: Калининградская железная дорога) is the smallest subsidiary of the Russian Railways by route length (618 km) and differs from other Russian railways in having a string of standard gauge lines.
Main information
The railway is headquartered in Kaliningrad. Most lines were built by the Prussian Eastern Railway before the Second World War. The railway terminal in Kaliningrad, currently known as Yuzhny Vokzal, was opened in 1929 as Königsberg Hauptbahnhof. It was separated from the Pribaltic Railway after the breakup of the Soviet Union in 1992.
