On January 29, a mobile exhibition and lecture complex arrived at the Kirov-Passenger station.
The train expositions demonstrate the results of cooperation with world leaders in the field of locomotive building, high-speed traffic, nanotechnological solutions used in railway transport.

The exhibition train runs regularly throughout the entire Russian railway network, and its exposition is constantly updated, demonstrating the latest solutions used in the ongoing deep modernization of Russian railways.
I learned about the arrival of the exhibition train a week and a half in advance. I fit in on time and therefore went there in the late afternoon with my friends who are also passionate about by rail

Here they showed a video about the prospect of building high-speed railway lines in Russia
We go to the second car


It's much more interesting here. It is dedicated to the theme of the railways of the USSR


But the most unique exhibit was the model of the Vitebsk station in 1944. Shown here is the station during the German occupation


Then we were told about the Vitebsk station and the city. It was interesting and informative. And we're moving on
The third carriage presents models of high-speed electric trains that are operated on our roads


Electric train SM6 "Allegro" (used on the route St. Petersburg-Helsinki, Finland). Alas, the train itself is not assigned to us ...


ES1 "Lastochka" It is used on many suburban and interregional lines in different regions of the country, starting from Leningrad and up to Sverdlovsk region. Modified electric trains ES2G operate on direct current sections, which are single-system, unlike their predecessor


EVS1 "Sapsan". Used between our two capitals
4 wagon


EP20 double-fed electric locomotive
Then came DC electric locomotives


EP2K


2ES6 "Sinara"

2ES10 "Granite"


Rail bus RA2


Gas turbine locomotive GТh1. One of the most powerful locomotives in the world. Today he works in the Sverdlovsk region. In the future, it is planned to use them on the direction of Novy Urengoy-Surgut-Voynovka (Tyumen) for the development of heavy traffic on autonomous traction


wagons high-speed train Talgo "Swift". Now Talgo is working on the Moscow-Nizhny-Novgorod route instead of the above-mentioned Sapsan. Strizh flight to Berlin is planned today
Fifth car


Ecological diesel locomotives were presented here. I photographed only Chmukha
Sixth car








Here I photographed different railroad maps
The seventh car passed quickly only paying attention to the simulator of the EP1M electric locomotive
The penultimate eighth car aroused the greatest interest
The control simulators of the electric train ES1 "Lastochka" are located there.


There is an opportunity to feel like a driver on the Adler-Alpinka Service section, Krasnodar Territory, North Caucasus Highway
The only joint - visible on the screen contact network direct current, but in fact the site is electrified by alternating current


Speedometer "Swallows"
And then the EP1M AC electric locomotive simulator


Pokatushki across the expanses of the Irkutsk region to the Slyudyanka station of the East Siberian Railway


EPshki remote control
The three of us took turns running the epshka. Here in the eighth car it was more interesting than everyone
let's leave the car for a while


The last ninth car is represented by various nano-developments. We were here for a short time, and then returned to the previous ones, where we again managed to control the simulators while there were no people


At the end they wrote a review about PVLK


The tour was interesting and informative.
Today, on the 30th, the train will be with us all day, and tomorrow it will go to the Zuevka station, and after it to Izheevsk, and from there to the Southern passage of the Gorky road.
Thanks to all

What am I going to tell you today? We recently visited JSC " Russian Railways". What is it, you ask?! This train is a lecture hall on wheels! Your movement along big cities he started in August 2011, and came to us from Volgograd. Everyone is shown expositions located in 9 cars, talking about the latest in the development of railway transport, energy, nanotechnology and other things. Contributed to the creation of this innovation trains» such large organizations as Roskosmos, Rosatom, Rosnano, Philips. There are 16 employees in the staff of the RZD PVLK, tour guides are among them, but I don’t know whether their composition changes or not.

We were lucky to get to the very beginning of the lecture, although we did not even suspect that they were planning them, since the news only talked about working hours. Having paid 70 rubles per person at the cash desk (children are free, students, in my opinion, too), we settled comfortably in comfortable chairs and began to watch a video on a large “panel”. It was about the history of the development of railway transport and its novelties, about working with young people and about something else, I listened with half an ear, because I admired the multi-colored changing lighting and the ceiling with twinkling stars.

After informative gatherings, we were offered to go to the next car, called " Innovative development OJSC Russian Railways.

Here you can easily view the windows, because they flash photos and videos. Our group was met by a mannequin - an important man - the boss, obviously.

As the guide said (and he has his own in each car), the beginning of the development of railway transport in Russia dates back to 1837. We saw a model of the unique steam locomotive P36, called "Joseph Stalin" in certain time, and then changed its name to a more concise "FDp". This steam locomotive was a high-speed passenger one, drove the Red Arrow to Leningrad, and Rossiya somewhere else. Now one single copy has been preserved in Kyiv, where it stands in the form of an eternal monument (correct me, the people of Kiev, if it has already been removed).

A special, I would even say, central place (showcases with exhibits are located in the center of the car) is occupied by models of high-speed and high-speed Russian electric trains.
SAPSAN was the first to catch our eye.

This is a high-speed electric train with a speed of up to 250 km/h (with the declared 300 km/h), having 604 seating, overcomes the distance between Moscow and St. Petersburg in 3 hours 45 minutes, and between Moscow and - in 3 hours 55 minutes. Also "SAPSAN" follows from S.-P. to N.N., but for a much longer time - for a little over 8 hours.

The speed of movement is 220 km / h (both structural and operational). This electric train has a number of innovative features, for example, the technology of tilting the body up to 8 degrees, which allows you not to slow down when passing curves and level the effect of centrifugal force.

We also had a chance to see a model of the Swallow double-powered high-speed electric train (however, not only the model, according to the guide, mobile exhibition and lecture complex JSC " Russian Railways” is located just in such a one), which is planned to be put into service for participants and guests of the XX Winter Olympic Games in Sochi - 2014, and then sent to work in messages between cities.

The Swallow electric train is designed to replace obsolete suburban electric trains. Its peculiarity lies in the fact that the equipment can be installed both on the roof and in the undercar space, allowing it to accommodate more than 850 passengers.

The next car is another exposition "Rolling Stock of Russian Railways".

Here were collected models of modern locomotives and wagons, types of track and other railway equipment. For example, the SHOM-1200 crushed stone cleaning machine (high-performance, according to the guide):

Or the self-propelled universal track measuring and flaw detection complex "NORTH":

It is designed specifically to work in the conditions of the north. Directly on the move, rail diagnostics are carried out, the geometric parameters of the track of the main and receiving and departure tracks are monitored. As the developers of the SUPDC "SEVER" project assure, with the start of use, the efficiency of work has significantly increased, energy costs have decreased, and environmental parameters have improved.

As for the development of suburban communication, the RA2 rail bus is presented at the exhibition:

This miracle - the project was developed at JSC "Metrovagonmash" and is intended for implementation passenger traffic on non-electrified sections of railway tracks and as transport for suburban and intra-regional communications. The maximum capacity of this bus is 600 people. RA" can consist of two head cars or have an additional 1 - 2 intermediate cars connected by a walkway. Design speed 100 km/h, operational speed not specified.

It's designed for driving freight trains on railway tracks of 1520 mm, electrified by direct current (with a voltage of 3 kV).

What else did we see in this car?! Two-axle shunting diesel locomotive with a power plant with a capacity of 600 hp. with. It was built in Yaroslavl and its cabin has all-round visibility.

DC electric locomotive 2ES10 "GRANIT" with asynchronous traction drive:

Without a photo, I will add what we saw: a specialized car for transporting coal 12 - 9828, an articulated platform car model 13 - 9851, a universal covered car with a sliding casing, a GT1 gas turbine locomotive (running on liquefied natural gas), diesel locomotive 2TE25A "Vityaz", shunting diesel locomotive TEM18DM, high-speed dual-fed electric locomotive EP20 also with asynchronous traction drive (Novocherkassk), electric train ED4MKM-Aero for intermodal transportation (to airports), hopper car for transportation of mineral fertilizers, laying crane UK 25/25 and other equipment.

We pass to the next car, which is called "Railway Infrastructure". By the way, there are two automatic doors between them. I didn’t have time to go along with all the sightseers - press the button and wait for the doors to open.

The astronaut met us:

Sitting in a depreciation chair "Kazbek - U" and dressed in an emergency rescue suit "Falcon - KV - 2". The cosmonaut is surrounded by a showcase with some of the personal belongings of Yu. A. Gagarin (there is even a helmet, and the same as the one I go to exhibitions from time to time).

The exhibition exposition of this car presents the existing layouts or panoramas to the tourists (I'm at a loss how to call it correctly). That is, they have moving objects. To be honest, I managed to make out only a few, especially attracted (by its diminutiveness) one - this is an artist painting on an easel near the road (he raises and lowers one hand in which he holds a brush).

Model of the railway complex at the Baikonur Cosmodrome - the first and largest in the world (founded in 1955). There are 470 km of railway tracks on the territory of Baikonur:

Only at the Baikonur cosmodrome there are 2 launch complexes for a heavy-class launch vehicle ("Proton").

Rocket with a ship railway they are transported from the assembly and testing complex to the launch pad located a few kilometers away.

The gauge of Russia and Europe has different values. In Russia - 1520 mm, and in Europe - 1435 mm. On the border between Belarus and Poland, the running gears of cars are being replaced from one standard to another (according to the Talgo RD system). In the special depot, the cars are lifted, the running gear of the standard that needs to be replaced is rolled out, and the running gear of a completely different standard is rolled up. The wagons are then lowered.

The next car, called "Energy Saving and Ecological Safety", is divided into several zones. I'll show you some.
This is the KVINT ecosystem. With it, you can carry out remote control, being with the remote control in your pocket in another car. The complex itself reports the results of the diagnosis.

The autoguidance system is designed for fully automated control of rolling stock, taking into account all traffic safety standards and compliance with them in the saving mode of movement and in accordance with a predetermined schedule and running time.

The exposition, as I understand it, presents Philips lighting equipment.

The bottom is red, the top is yellow, and in the middle, as you can see, is a green light.

Let's move on to the next car. The guide called it like this: “Automation, telemechanics and communications. Transportation process management. It is extremely difficult to organize and manage transportation.

This is a training complex for an electric locomotive driver, it seems. You could sit on this chair and even touch the levers and press some buttons:

Operational technological communication panel of the station duty officer (DSP):

This, in my opinion, is the most real automated workplace of a train dispatcher:

In the car “Energy of Future Generations. Rosatom presented some achievements in the field of peaceful nuclear technologies. The guide briefly spoke about the types of nuclear reactors and showed the containment area (scale 1:100):

And on these panels (there were only 4 of them, in my opinion) there is an online broadcast about the radiation background and pictures are shown:

What impressed me the most was the floors in this car:

And a device that allows you to measure the level of your own radioactivity. True, the guide with great reluctance put this device into action, apparently the stuffiness of the room (and it was barely tolerable) caused such reluctance.
In general, the girl made the launch, we alternately stood at the designated places and watched the result. The larger the person, the higher the rate. For comparison: my indicator is 3834 becquerel, and my daughter’s indicator is 1020 becquerel (1 becquerel is equal to 1 disintegration per second). The limit is 20,000 becquerels.
Radioactivity is a natural a natural phenomenon inherent in all material objects on earth, including man.

After a short measurement procedure, we moved to the Nanotechnologies JSC Rusnano car. What did they not show us here!
Here, for example, is an intelligent security system designed to recognize faces in crowded places (metro, airports, train stations, stadiums, etc.).

Much attention is paid to composite products, noise and heat insulating materials, cutting tools, energy-saving glass, nanostructured ceramics, lighting products, air purification and disinfection systems.

And here is the LED plant growth stimulator (RGB, that is, red, green, blue) accelerate the photosynthesis of plants and their growth.

This is how the last carriage that we visited, or rather, which we were offered to visit, looks like. Unfortunately, one carriage, obviously, is called "Youth and Personnel Policy of Russian Railways". Gym complexes ”did not work for technical reasons, so I can’t talk about it.

This concludes our tour of mobile exhibition and lecture complex JSC " Russian Railways"is over. A couple of days later, the train left for St. Petersburg, to acquaint its residents with the achievements in the field of railway transport.

And in your city such a innovation train? And how do you feel about such an event?

Northern Suburban Passenger Company announces schedule changes due to the operation of the mobile exhibition complex

JSC "SPKK" informs that for technical reasons the schedule is partially changed suburban train No. 6009 Yaroslavl-Glavny - Alexandrov, departure from Yaroslavl-Glavny on January 9, 2016. The train will run to Shushkovo station according to the current schedule, then:

Shushkovo 18.16 - 18.17;

sq. 147 km 18.22 - 18.23;

Berendeevo 18.26 - 18.27;

sq. 142 km 18.30 - 18.31;

about. Bagrimovo settlement 18.35 - 18.36;

Also, in connection with the work of the mobile exhibition and lecture complex of Russian Railways (PVLK) on January 7, 8 and 9, 2016, the schedule of the commuter train 6284 Yuryev-Polsky - Ivanovo departs from Yuryev-Polsky station at 4:57. On these days, the train will follow the current schedule to Pelgusovo station, then Tekstilny - 7:13 - 7:25 (instead of 7:13 - 7:15). The train will arrive at Ivanovo station at 7:35 (instead of 7:25).

On January 12, the timetable of suburban train No. 6326 Danilov - Bui is changed, departing from Danilov station at 18:29. The train will follow the current schedule to about. 438 km, then Korega 20:39 - 21:18 (instead of 20:39 - 20:41) and arrive at Bui station at 21:27 (instead of 20:50).

All detailed information You can find out about changes in the timetable, as well as appointments and cancellations of trains at the Unified Information and Service Center of JSC Russian Railways by calling 8-800-775-00-00 (round the clock, the call is free for all regions of Russia), as well as at stands located at train stations and stations.

The organization of transport services for the population by suburban rail transport is the responsibility of the executive authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. It is they who determine the volume of suburban traffic in the region: they order the required number of trains and wagons and set the tariff for the population, which, as a rule, is lower than the economically justified tariff, while they are obliged to compensate the carrier's losses in full.

For three years now, the Mobile Exhibition and Lecture Complex of the Russian Railways (PVLK) has been running around the country. Finally he got to Kursk, and I visited him.

A ticket costs 70 rubles, but children, pensioners and the disabled are free of charge.

The lecture hall is located in the first carriage.

In the second carriage we are met by a historical exposition. Many are unaccustomed to fear.

Model of the type L steam locomotive popular after the war.

There is life inside the toy Peregrine Falcon:

High-speed train "Allegro" from the inside is different.

It even has a bar!

And this is the "Swallow", which runs along the Kursk-Moscow route.

This is how she is on the inside. Who went, tell me - everything is exactly like that?

I was lucky - a group of students from a railway technical school caught up with me, and I joined their excursion and listened to everything.

In the next car there are models of various railway equipment. I won’t go into details, there are a lot of them, and they have different purposes.
All models are made very high quality.

The space pavilion greets us with an astronaut mannequin with disproportionately short legs.

In addition to Gagarin's headset and other relics, the exposition presents the hit of the season - a fragment of the Chelyabinsk meteorite.

Model of the Vostochny cosmodrome under construction.

In general, there are also many layouts of the terrain, some of them are moving. In my untrained eye, the quality is very decent.

The next carriage contains special railway equipment. For example, this is a “stationary track lubrication technology demonstrator”. It turns out that the rails are lubricated, for me it was a revelation.

Autopilot for the train.

This climate control panel is installed in modern wagons. In each compartment you can control the temperature.

The environment has not been neglected either. A separate car is dedicated to clean and energy-saving technologies.

This is a promising shunting diesel locomotive running on liquefied natural gas.

In the next car there is a variety of equipment for managing the railway. Pictured is a modern control room. Girls, alas, are not real.

But more popular among visitors was a simulator of the usual Kamaz.

Railway students also became interested in the electric locomotive simulator. We even drove under the guidance of a guide from station to station. Graphics - like in the best three-dimensional games.

There is also a car dedicated to nanotechnology. But it’s not very spectacular there - the size of the technologies affects. Lots of layouts, samples of materials, posters.

I was pleased that the exposition was watched by many schoolchildren and students - the groups go one by one.

If you want to get into the exhibition too, go to Zheleznogorsk next weekend, on December 27-28 the train will be at the Mikhailovsky mine station.

Official website of the train: rzd-expo.ru/pvlk. On it you can see the timetable and exposition.
