Introduction

This list is based on 2007/2008 timetable information. Standard abbreviations used are explained in General Information. For details of recent history, please refer to Kaliningrad Oblast General Information.

Obscure services

[Braniewo PKP] – Mamonovo - Kaliningrad

[1] RU08/1

The daily cross border service from Poland is on standard gauge track and takes a totally different route between a junction to the north of Golubevo and Kaliningrad compared to the Broad Gauge RŽD services from Mamonovo. The standard gauge service arrives at the east end of the station, the broad gauge into the west.

Kaliningrad Severnyj

[22/24] RU08/2

Historically the terminus station of lines from the North and North East. The platforms are at the end of a 0.5km line at a higher level in comparison to the adjacent platform on the through line to Kaliningrad Main station and it is used in summer and near or on Public Holidays [for example 1 May] by additional trains between Kaliningrad Severnyy and Svetlogorsk II. The extras in the timetable period 2007/2008 are:-

6711 13:25 Kaliningrad-Severnyj - Svetlogorsk II
