Children's Railroad, Children's railway in Chelyuskinites Park, Minsk, Belarus.
The Children's Railroad stretches for 3.79 kilometers through Minsk with three stations: Zaslonovo, Pionerskaya, and Sosnovy Bor along its narrow-gauge tracks.
The railway began operations on July 9, 1955, as part of a Soviet Union initiative to introduce young people to railroad operations and engineering skills.
In 1971, the railroad received the name of Konstantin Zaslonov, commemorating the Soviet partisan leader who fought during World War II in Belarus.
The railroad functions seasonally with trains departing from Zaslonovo station, situated between Park Čaliuskincaŭ and Maskoŭskaja metro stations for convenient access.
Teenagers perform all operational duties on the railway, including dispatching, signaling, and conducting trains under professional supervision.
