Map of Kaliningrad Railways

The Kaliningrad Railway (Калининградская железная дорога) was separated from the Pribaltiyskaya Railway after the breakup of the Soviet Union in 1992. It is the smallest subsidiary of the Russian Railways by route length (618 km) and differs from other Russian railways in having a string of standard gauge lines. The railway is headquartered in Kaliningrad. Most lines were built by the Prussian Eastern Railway before the Second World War. The railway terminal in Kaliningrad, currently known as Yuzhny Vokzal, was opened in 1929 as Königsberg Hauptbahnhof.
