There were more than 100,000 workers involved. Work and living conditions were extremely tough. Diggers, carpenters, metal – workers, masons and their families were channeled from the European part of Russia to Siberia. Russian people were building the railway using locally – produced materials. The track went trough impassable taiga crossing wide rivers and huge mountains.

The work was completed in 1902, except for a ferry crossing Lake Baikal. The difficult passage round the South end of the lake, with many tunnels, was finally completed in 1905. In our days it is the longest railway in the world (9,288km).

By 1913 the railway network consisted of 25state lines and 13 private lines belonging to different companies. The Russian railway system was the largest in Europe.

Today it is difficult to imagine Russia without the railways. The geographical, historical and economic conditions have been formed in such a way that the railway becomes a symbol of Russia.
