Leninskaya Line (Russian: Ле́нинская), is a line of the Novosibirsk Metro. The line was opened along with the Metro in 1986 with the original five station segment. Since then it slowly expanded. The line bisects the city of an Northwest-Southeast axis before making a 90 degree turn and crossing the river Ob river on a closed bridge. The financial difficulties of the early 1990s delayed the extensions.
