Their address is not home and no street

Family bacon almost 30 years of living, meeting and seeing off the train. Wooden two-storey station built in the late nineteenth century, on the one hand "undercut" the rail, on the other - props private sector.

Every five minutes past the wooden house, painted in a pale blue color, sweep train, in the sky above them buzzing planes: a couple of kilometers from the old station is the airport. In a word, civilization, only the terminus inhabitants to her as far as foreign to the resort, which carry Volgograd flying overhead planes.

 - Where we live - meets us on the platform Maxim bacon, which was released on journalists "All for You" with his "apartment" question. - People I call rarely bothered to explain to people why I live at the station, but made an exception for you.

Maxim parents and his older brother arrived in Volgograd from Saratov region 30 years ago. Adults got a job at the railway station, it was thought that they were lucky, because the agency has promised to employees service housing.

 - First, we were asked to stay in the basement of the station - join the conversation Maxim mother Elena Bezruchko - and then gave a "flat" on the second floor of the station. The apartment, of course, loudly or running water here, no gas, but then we needed at least some roof over your head, that's agreed.

The employer promised bacon that station will be a temporary home, but instead of the promised "Khrushchev" they eventually offered to register at the railway station. So in their passports mark appears in the box Registration: "Station, apartment number 1".



Stamp block
In the middle of the last century in three rooms on the second floor of the railway station Gumrak staged hardware. Then the equipment carried, and in the empty space housed people.

Today, in addition to family members of bacon, there lives another 70-year-old pensioner - a woman of Paradise. Catch her at home we could not: it is usually for the summer take relatives.

Maxim bacon is now established in a neighboring apartment of mother № 2. His father died, and my brother has long moved to Ufa, but the place of registration of his former.

 - We live without gas and water, there is only electricity - conducts a tour of its 15 square meters Max. - I have two rooms: a bedroom and a kitchen. Three years ago, put plastic windows, made repairs, bought furniture. Was comfortable, but the dream (have a shower and toilet) and remains elusive.

For all public inconvenience residents of the station monthly pay only 400 rubles per light. They spread out on all three apartments. Money is not great, but still have to shell out on a regular basis.

By the way, washroom tenants station - in the courtyard outside shower - there, just 15 meters from the threshold.

Water in plastic bottles are bacon from the well, which stands on a nearby street: to wash the utensils you need two bottles, wash clothes - five.



 - On a wash we go to relatives in the Soviet area, a paid bath every day you are not - recognized guy. - As a child I had a complex: how to tell my classmates that I live at the station. And now neither Woman invite or friends.

With such a residence permit one problem: when applying for a job at the bank, even in the clinic.

 - Once he tried to take the credit, - says Maxim. - So the girl-specialist when she saw the residence, at first did not believe it, then laughed and carried to show my passport around the jar. All the fun of the soul, but the credit I still have not given out, explaining that all this is very doubtful.

Son, Maxim, the little Sergei, prescribe the place of residence of his father refused. The boy is two years old and seven months, it all fits in kindergarten, but to take the boy to the group without registration again refused.



"The first step should be to make themselves the station»
Family bacon still hopes to get decent housing. But if once the railroad was given an apartment for a family, but now the agency should provide square meters each adult member of the family - and that three apartments plus housing for women Rai.

But today on the railway works only mother Maxim - and there is no reason not to distribute scarce housing to employees. Especially in the Volga branch of Russian Railways openly questioned the reliability of the station residence 30 years ago.

 - Every year it attracts a commission checks the condition of the building - continues Maxim. - And if earlier promised to resettle the residents as soon as a decision is made on the demolition, the last year the station embellishing, patched and decided that we can continue to live here. The situation is really absurd: to privatize the room or it can be sold only if it is residential. But the station under this category clearly misses. And what to do in such cases - the law does not tell.



Still, human rights activists advise Maxim bacon and his family to fight for the right to own a house.

 - We understand that neither the young man nor his family missives will not write all of their oral treatment only - says a representative of the Commissioner for Human Rights in the Volgograd region Yuri Korzeev. - We are ready to help them sort out the problem, but the first step should be to make people themselves trapped in such a non-standard situation. Of course, you can tighten the belt and heroically suffer as Russian people used to do, but then the prospect of the housewarming in a normal house, you can forget.

As an official body to register them in the room station Gumrak - village administration Dzerzhinsky district, then you should start with the recognition of the family in need of better housing conditions. And demand from the district administration of registration. Do not be upset if the administration would have the answer - it is also the result. At this stage, we suggest you contact us.

Of course, the lawyers themselves and the station residents have no doubt that this path will not be easy. But 30 years of living out of a suitcase taught them to be optimistic about the future - even if there was, in front, only an endless strip of rail.
