Abstract

This article considers the issues on forming the Russian transport system, and the impact of distance and climate on the transport development. Special attention is paid to the role of railway transport in the country’s transport system, the state and development of rolling stock, and the development of track equipment. Considerable attention is paid to the development of transport and the railway network in the Far East and Siberia.

Highlights

The transport system created in Russia in the XIXth-XXth centuries is unique by its length and latitude location [1, 15, 26, 27]
It is possible to say that such elements as the Trans-Siberian and Baikal-Amur railroads, the Murmansk-Saint Petersburg railway, and the Norilsk-Dudinka railway are undoubtedly contributions of the Russian engineering thought to the material culture of the mankind [7, 8, 31]
This creates problems related to functioning of the Russian transport system, which are supplemented by the lack of roads [highways and railways] or their extreme limitations in the eastern regions of the country and in the north [15]

Summary

Introduction

The transport system created in Russia in the XIXth-XXth centuries is unique by its length and latitude location [1, 15, 26, 27]. It is possible to say that the transport system created in Russia is unique and it is an important element of the Eurasian transport system. Its uniqueness does not indicate to the fact that the transport system of our country does not have internal contradictions in its development and has no problems when functioning. The Russian transport system develops under difficult conditions that are objective and subjective. It has considerable reserves for the growth, but cannot always use them [1, 2, 7, 26, 45] within the historically short time period of 5-10 years. Delay and nonimplementation of many projects create difficulties related to functioning of the transport system itself, and to the development of the entire national economy of the country
