Mykolaiv-Vantazhnyi Station

Cool station building. It is a pity that it was started. It would not be bad, of course, that the trains at which the terminal station Nikolaev arrived exactly here, since this station is located in the city center, which is very convenient. In fact, they go here but without passengers. Here comes those service. Several times I managed to persuade the conductors so that they would not wake up at the sorting and gave a lift to Nikolaev-Gruzovoy :)

The old railway station of Nikolaev: rich biography and a sad end. _______________________ Once it was the center of public life in Nikolaev: first on a horse-drawn car, and then on trolley buses, thousands of citizens got to the station to leave for different parts of Russia and Ukraine. At several ticket offices they were selling tickets, trains were buzzing, passengers were hurrying ... But people left, and life stopped. The building, carefully thought out by architects, is now used for technical purposes, and even collapses - right before our eyes. In Nikolaev rails laid, destroyed and again laid A hundred years after the first passenger train left Nikolaev in 1873, I. Evtikhov in the Yuzhnaya Pravda newspaper described a rich biography of the Nikolaev railway junction. The need to connect our city with the Znamenka station, the author reports, arose after the abolition of serfdom and the opening of the seaport for foreign ships. Then the railway network began to develop directly in the city: steel tracks led to the seaport, the Naval, Russud and other factories. In 1907, the Nikolaev – Kherson line was built, and in 1914, the Nikolaev – Kolosovka line. It is worth noting here that in 1906, as the Nikolaev newspaper in 1912 writes, the Nikolaev station was very poorly equipped. “This was her situation until 1908, when the amount of claims reached 100 thousand rubles. Since that time, the development of the station has progressed forward, ”the newspaper said. Although progressively, the Nikolaev railway network did not develop for long: during the civil war, like the Great Patriotic War, it was badly destroyed. Old-timers say that during the retreat, the Germans broke the rails and sleepers. When the city was occupied by our troops, they introduced labor service - each able-bodied person had to work on the restoration of the railway. ----------------------------------------------

horror and nightmare!

A deserted, empty, dirty place. Heaps of garbage ... Generally terrifying ... First time here ..

The horrible train station is for a city such as Mykolaiv. There is no cashier, no precise timetable, that is, no useful and up-to-date information for passengers. The premises are in an abandoned condition, open only to station employees. I advise everyone to specify all the information on the Internet.
