Historically, the first path Rail goods came here after the Russian-Japanese war in the southern (Japanese time) of the island. The first connection to the port of Korsakov (Oodomari) and then gradually and further south to the border, the 50th parallel - Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk (Toyohara) - Starodub (Sakaehama), then the road on the western side of the island Nevelsk (Honto) - Ilyinsky (Kussyunay). To thirty years the network was already quite dense and did not belong only to the state. There were also private plots. On the Russian side (less mastered) existed only narrow-gauge railway for export coal and timber.

After the war, have even been attempts to link the mainland rail network with the network of the island via tunnel "Cape Pogibi - Lazarev." After the death of IV Stalin, these attempts were stopped, though, and money and effort has been spent a lot. Influence of the Japanese survived life here on the railway up to the present time. Rolling stock is almost all Russian, but believe me - it looks very, very not like the mainland. Therefore SahZhD profile museum is a place that definitely worth a visit.
