Pridneprovskaya railway is a transport line that serves the southeastern part of Ukrainian territory. In particular, it passes through the Zaporozhye and Dnepropetrovsk regions. The service also extends to parts of the Kherson and Kharkov territories. Until March 2014, this railway structure performed the tasks of transporting passengers and goods in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and Sevastopol. Head of the Pridneprovsk railway - A. S. Boretsky, Ch. engineer - A. G. Lashko, first deputy. chief - O. V. Shchepetkov.
Historical information
The structure began its existence back in 1873, on November 15th. It was on this day that the first passenger train arrived at the Nizhnedneprovsk station (formerly Yekaterinoslav). The starting point was Sinelnikovo. This first train consisted of two cars. Over time, due to the increase in the volume of coal mining in the Donbass, the development of the iron ore basins of Krivoy Rog, and also thanks to the activity of M. O.
Development during the war years
During World War IIThe Dnieper railway was almost completely destroyed. During the hostilities and during the liberation of the territories of Russia from the invaders, the workers of the stations carried out maintenance of transportation, supply of the front, as well as restoration work on the tracks and repair of rolling stock. Thousands of railway workers took part in military operations, a huge number of them conducted underground activities.
Reconstruction
After the war, active restoration of objects destroyed by the invaders began throughout the country. The Pridneprovskaya railway was no exception. It was not only restored, but also reconstructed. Not only new stations of the Prydniprovska railway were rebuilt, but also the station buildings were renovated, and new ones were built in some areas. Large bridges and various other artificial structures were erected. At the same time, the meridional main direction from st. Lozovaya to Zaporozhye. Electrification was carried out in all main latitudinal directions and suburban areas. A little more than 30% of the cargo turnover, therefore, remained with the locomotive traction. The rest of these operations are performed electrically. About 85% of the road was equipped with automatic blocking installations. More than 95% of the sites are equipped with centralization of signals and switches of electric type. In addition to the main ones, new marshalling yards were built. These facilities are equipped with modern technical complexes of automation and mechanization. Forhigh-performance units are used to carry out repair work on the tracks and maintain the track in proper condition.
Pridneprovsk railway today
The total length of the tracks is more than 3250 km. Of this total, more than 58% are electrified. More than 83% of the tracks are equipped with automatic adjustment systems. The structure includes four directorates for transportation. Transport activity is carried out by 244 stations, 19 of which are district, 67 are freight, 7 are passenger and 4 are marshalling stations. The railroad connects the Krivoy Rog iron ore basin and the Donbass due to the presence of two latitudinal lines: Pyatikhatki - Verkhovtsevo - Dnepropetrovsk - Sinelnikovo - Chaplino and Timkovo - Krivoy Rog - Apostolovo - Zaporozhye - Kamysh - Zarya. The Prydniprovska Railway provides services to such large industrial centers as Dneprodzerzhinsk, Nikopol, Pavlograd, Novomoskovsk and others.
Freight turnover
According to reports and statistics, the activities carried out by the Prydniprovska railway are characterized by a large share of receiving and sending goods. However, it should be noted that the turnover of the structure is relatively low in general. This is due to the relatively short range of transportation. Mainly manganese and iron ores, coke, coal, ferrous metal are transported. The cargo is often cars, manufactured goodsand equipment, building materials, grain, fluxes.
Passenger transport
Until recently, a large number of trains transported citizens from Russia to Ukraine. Suburban communication is very well developed. It accounts for more than 85% of all passenger traffic. However, due to the short distance, commuter traffic accounts for only a quarter of the total passenger traffic.
Reformation
Today, all divisions of the structure are involved in the implementation of industry and government programs for the development of the transport network. The activities are aimed primarily at strengthening security and improving the reliability of transportation, improving volume and quality indicators. Relatively recently, the management of the Prydniprovska railway was reformed. Thus, the Crimean, Zaporozhye and Krivoy Rog sections were reorganized into the Directorate of Railway Transportation.
Using modern technology
Of particular importance in the informatization of the structure is the connection to the Internet. The Dnieper Railway, whose official website is dp.uz.gov.ua, uses the latest achievements in the field of communications and world experience in solving many issues. In addition, the presence of the structure on the Internet allows for closer and faster interaction with customers. On the pages of the site you can find all the necessary information on the services provided by the organization.
