Today I attended the opening of three new stations Kurenivsko-Chervonoarmiiska line of the Kyiv subway. This event Kiev waiting for 5 years.

Despite the fact that I personally happen to these stations, will likely have rarely, since they are at the opposite end of the city, is still happy for the development of the metro in our city.
All this time, the progress of the construction, I watched other people's photos on the Internet, and finally today, everyone was able to get to the station.

Most people knew that the station will be open today, and believed that in the morning. That is why in the morning on duty at the station Lybidska (which until now has been the final) had, almost kicked to kick people out of the cars that are going to go further.
People are more informed, including me, knew that the official part of the opening, with the participation of the Prime Minister will be held at 14:00, and only at the end of officialdom mortals begin to run on the station.

Coming after two to Libidska, I saw quite a crowd of people who were waiting for the same will be possible to take the train in the direction of new stations.
It was fun to see how people perplexed thrown out of cars, others try to enter them. It lasted as long as the arrival of the next train was announced: the train goes to station Demeevskaya.
