OBSTACLE JUNCTION
Abstract
The article reveals a little-known chapter in the history of Murmansk railway. It is timed to the 100th anniversary of the construction of the Northern mainline. The article describes an attempt of Murmansk residents in the years 1920-1930 to establish their own independent rail access to Petrograd (Leningrad) junction, and to organize in the city their own main passenger (with a terminal station) and freight stations in the best possible way to process their cargo and passenger traffic, regardless of other railway infrastructure, forced interaction with which did not always have a positive effect on the organization of transportation process.
