Perhaps the most striking part of the whole trip - a night tour of several most beautiful place "other metro". During my previous, winter trip, the study of the local subway tunnels confined visit dismantled for station Khreschatyk, arranged parallel to the current stretch of, as well as a huge underground unfinished air defense command center at Metro. At this time, the main objective, were walking on the operating side subway.

In the Kiev subway many interesting places, about the existence of which few people know. For example, 2 unfinished canned station as part of the existing lines through which trains pass every day without stopping, as well as the only system of connecting branches through which the distillation train to another subway line. The system of connecting branches. Trains are run extremely rare, and most of the tunnels are illuminated at any time.



During my stay beside extracts from ventshaht was a large accumulation of fog formed due to the sharp difference in temperature on the streets and tunnels.



The hermetic locks.



Runs parallel output, the envelope hermetic locks. Within literally "hang in the air," two small germ. Do not quite understand this nazanchenie unfinished appendix, but looks even somehow apokalipstichno.

The next place, about which I'll be one of the two conserved stations as part of a functioning lines - Lviv Brahma. Construction of the station began in 1991, but due to lack of funding and the lack of a comprehensive solution of the reconstruction project of the Lviv area, where he was placed exit from the station, the opening date repeatedly transferred. Eventually, in 1996, the site was launched on the Golden Gate - Lukianivska, which Lviv Brama never came. To this day, the trains pass by. Now, local authorities predict opening station in the second half of 2013, but no work on the top of the escalator naklonnika penetration, exactly as the finishing station still maintained and has not begun.



Passages in the main lobby are covered with thick iron plates, and the doors are locked from the inside. The station is on duty.



Ventilation sboyka. Behind is an extract from ventshahny № 224. Recently location ventkioska, decided to build an office and administration building, and hood integrated into the facade of the building. Construction work is already underway, and the building is now almost complete in the design. In early stroitelsva buildings, primarily mine was built kiosk. Under the new regulations Built exhaust hood must be above the roof of the building

And lastly, the second conserved station as part of the same line - Telichka. Station Dual Span, fine bedding. Construction of the station early as 1991, but after a couple of years, it was decided to put the station on the conservation for the same reason - the lack of passenger traffic and the presence on the territory of the industrial building. In the near future, not far from the station, scheduled Construction business center. It is possible that the opening of the station will be relevant, but it is vague prospects ... Exit from the station will be located in the center of the platform. The photographs showed groundwork for them. This type of station is very common in the Paris metro.

There, in the project, another station, again wife Syretso- Caves line with the project name - Herzen. But it was abandoned during construction. The basis of the task in the construction of this station was unloading of passengers at the Kiev Motorcycle Plant. The construction site is also conducted in heavy 90th, when the plant down its activities, which, in turn, dramatically affected the decline in passenger traffic in the area. The station was built exactly one third, when it was decided to give up and in place ready reserve, built of traction combined down substation (STF). Now, on the stretch Lukianivska - Dorogozhichi, you can see two narrow platform with an emergency exit to the surface.
