Bus nakhabino pavlovskaya sloboda timetable. Rail travel

The promised continuation of the report on the Saturday trip to Pavlovskaya Sloboda along the dismantled railway line. Beginning here: Let me remind you that at that time I stopped at the Ozerka platform.

Right behind the platform is a crossing. As usual, the rails remained under the asphalt. A billboard was erected right on the way.

The asphalt is bad, the rails crawl out from under it.

Here again the road replaced the railway.

And in some places they paved the roadside with sleepers. And there was a desire to turn them around?

Suddenly, railroad tracks emerge from the road dust.

The automobile track suppressed the iron one clearly even before the complete liquidation of the branch ...

The inhabitants of the next village have already ripped the rails off the wooden sleepers:

I had to turn back and go around to the right. There I came across the remains of a crossing through a branch from the station. Pavlovskaya Sloboda:

In the other direction, the remnants of the path are immediately lost in impassable thickets.

I go around them on the way. Along the way, the path rises to the embankment and goes beyond the next fence. It docked to the main track somewhere in a fenced area. Here is the main path to freedom:

Someone sawed the rail, but left it in place (maybe temporarily):

And the other way, not electrified, crossed the river Istra.
Some explanation is needed here. I am not a fan of climbing in closed areas. However, as it turned out later, I did not prepare for the trip to the proper extent, and did not think that the closed area starts from the bridge itself. Yes, the abandoned bridge was fenced, but I assumed that this was just to prevent any amateurs from falling off it. Moreover, the gates were on both sides. There were no identification marks (later I read that there used to be a "forbidden zone" sign, but it, apparently, had already been torn off). So I wandered straight into the territory of an abandoned military camp. (By the way, on all the maps for some reason the station was indicated exactly on this shore, which also misled me).
Impressive bridge. From a distance it seemed that it was a narrow-gauge railway:

Looking back:

Sky grid:

The tracks behind the bridge have apparently been abandoned for a long time - their condition there is as follows:

I don’t know how to go this way, so I went along the coast and further past the buildings. Here's what I saw there:

The remnants of the path appeared, sharply turning parallel to the river:

The remains of the last crossing (they, apparently, are the only rails on the territory):

Shed and loading platform:

More buildings:

The last meters of the way - in the recess between the two "platforms".

The Pavlovoslobodskaya line ended in a small shed. I looked in there and saw ... no, not a diesel locomotive, but a bunch of car tires.

The railway part of the trip ended here. I saw an open gate nearby and joyfully wandered there, thinking that I would go out into the village. Came out. Only, as it turned out, not to the village, but to the active part of this military town, which, to my surprise, turned out to be not so abandoned. I walked forward a little, looked back - some soldier locked the gate through which I had just passed. However, he paid no attention to me. I was shocked, surveyed the surroundings, but I did not see any other options but to go forward along the same street. I got to the checkpoint, met a couple of soldiers there, walking in the opposite direction, also not paying the slightest attention to me, and without any problems went outside in a completely awesome state. A minute later I was at the bus stop.
In general, I don’t know what to say (except about my own idiocy that led me there). But I won’t climb into military facilities anymore, thank you. Luck eventually ends.

And here's what's in there now...

The legendary scheme of the Riga direction. It is called "who will find more errors." According to Russian Railways, the branch is still operating and belongs to the Bolshaya Moscow District. :)

In fact, it was replaced by buses:

We start from moving through the Institutskaya street of the village. Nakhabino. Here the rails lie, but they are terribly overgrown, and the consoles of the contact network were removed from the poles.

The rails at the crossing are practically rolled into asphalt.

Former mover's booth.

One of the few areas where the branch resembles its former self.

Soon the rails break. In the photo - the former square. Parkovaya (Parkovaya-1 according to D. Ivanov, see the link above). By the way, the location of the first three bus stops exactly reproduces the location of the former platforms of the branch that ran almost parallel.

There is a traffic light near the platform. In good condition, I think even the lenses are intact. But, looking ahead, it is the only one I have discovered.

Next stop. (not marked on maps):

Here the consoles were not removed:

The next stopping point is Isakovo:

Some of the sleepers could not be loaded and were left in disarray:

On this section of the branch, now there is only such rolling stock:

And here the sleepers remained, only the rails were removed:

From this place (from the former crossing) a holiday village grew along the branch, and after dismantling, they already managed to lay an asphalt road:

For some reason, the road practically breaks off at the former Ozerki stopping point:

Right behind the platform is a crossing. As usual, the rails remained under the asphalt. A billboard was erected right on the way.

This trip was undertaken based on the memoirs of my friend and former colleague, Alexander Maksimenko.

In fact, this trip can be called a railway one conditionally, because the purpose of our trip was already by that time a fairly abandoned and partially dismantled branch of Nakhabino - Pavlovskaya Sloboda


2▼ We decided to start the survey of the branch from the final point, which is located on the map next to the bridge.

3▼ Although the bridge itself is fenced, numerous holes made it clear to us that all this is formal. However, our progress was suddenly stopped by a soldier who was on duty in the vicinity of the bridge on the other side of the river. Apparently, the bridge is under the jurisdiction of the military, it is noticeable with what diligence everything is painted, including the rails.

4▼ On the right, the remains of the Pavlovskaya Sloboda platform. In front, you can see the arrow of the path that goes towards the bridge to the V / Ch.

5▼ Manual arrow. Somewhere nearby, a fallen semaphore lay in the grass. As far as I know, today at this place nothing reminds of the past.

6▼ The railway is gradually turning into a pedestrian

7▼ We skipped the "Ozerki" platform, heading directly to "Isakovo"

8▼ platform "Isakovo". The grandmother we met with pleasure shared her memories of the times when the Cuckoo used to go here.

9▼ The timetable is written on the post. Quite to itself coincides with paper.

10▼ We return to Nakhabino. On the left you can see the path to Pavlovskaya Sloboda.

11▼ After wandering along the tracks of the station, we find ourselves on the territory of the Depot. Rumpled.

12▼ The inscriptions, apparently, are fake. Something about the year of construction 1950 appears under the paint.

13▼ And some garbage train in a distant dead end. We couldn't find anything else of interest there.

14▼ We decide to go towards the Anikeevka platform. An abandoned pioneer camp is found in the surrounding thickets.

15▼ And hellish rusty sawmill

16▼ However, the camp turned out to be inhabited by a pack of wild dogs. Further examination had to be abandoned.

17▼ We return to our starting position in Nakhabino and move along another branch. On the map, it leads south from the station. To the left in the grass are the remains of several more paths.

18▼ Quickly enough, the rails disappear and along the road you can hardly distinguish the remains of the embankment.

19▼ Although, in some places sleepers are visible under the foliage.
