Moscow Kursky railway station

Local nameКурский вокзал
LocationBasmanny District, Moscow, Russia

Kursky railway terminal, also known as Moscow Kurskaya railway station, is one of the ten railway terminals in Moscow. It was built in 1896, and renovated in 1938, then a large glass facade and modern roof was added in a 1972 expansion.

In 2008, there were plans to completely rebuild or refurbish the station. Kursky station, unlike most Moscow terminals, operates two almost opposite railroad directions from Moscow: one toward Kursk, Russia, after which the station is named, that stretches on into Ukraine, and another toward Nizhniy Novgorod, which is less used by long-distance trains, and is mostly for the high-speed service to Nizhniy. Kursky is connected to the Lengradskiy Line from the other side, enabling long-distance trains from St. Petersburg going on to other cities to pass through Russia's capital. Because of its three directions, its adjacency to the city center, and its connection to three major metro lines, Kursky is one of Moscow's busiest railway stations.
