It turns out that many children's desires, including a camping trip, a trip to the zoo, a visit to the attraction, can be realized at one time in one place, which is located in Novosibirsk. For many years, the children's railway gives all children kilometers of joy and novelty, and young railway workers have the opportunity to try out real adult work and practically test the knowledge and skills acquired at railway courses.
The real railway
The Children's Railway in Novosibirsk connects a number of remarkable places of mass recreation for citizens. Although it is considered an object of entertainment, it is not an attraction and by no means a primitive structure. DZhD - the real reduced railway line.
Two parts of the road were opened in turn, starting in 2005. Three narrow gauge canvases have a length of more than five kilometers. The activities of the children's road are supervised by adult railway workers, employees of the West Siberian Railways.
For the delight of children - a lot of ideas
The creators of the children's railway in Novosibirsk did not stint design ideas. The price of efforts did not bother investors, because the road was built for children with the embodiment of the best engineering solutions at the hands of happy people.
Everything is thought out to the smallest detail. Managed by the Small West Siberian Railway:
- station buildings at the Sportivnaya and Zaeltsovskaya stations;
- cash desk at the Zoo station and landing platforms;
- 2 metal flyovers;

- 5 moves;
- external engineering equipment;
- 2 water towers;
- sports and playgrounds;

The road runs through the Zaeltsovsky Park, passes bridges and children's entertainment centers, leading to indescribable delight not only small travelers, but also adult passengers. In total, four trains run on 3 cars. "Fairy Tale", "Youth", "Sibiryak" and "Dream" transport curious passengers along the route: Zaeltsovsky Park - Lokomotiv - Sportivnaya - Zoo (there and back).
The staff of the children's railway in Novosibirsk
On the Zaeltsovskaya railway, exclusively teenagers of high school age who have received special training at a local training center are working. Novosibirsk officials managed to combine entertaining and cognitive leisure for young residents of the Siberian capital and career guidance work with high school students. In the process of work, the guys are more familiar with the professions of railway workers. The first three years they get a general idea of work. In the fourth and fifth training courses, high school students specialize in their chosen profession.
At the Railways, the guys practice as guides of cars on the platform apron, station managers, train compilers, switchmen, diesel locomotive drivers, signalmen, power engineers, dispatchers, broadcasters and other workers.
