Savyolovskaya, Moscow Metro station
Savyolovskaya is a railway station in northwestern Moscow that primarily serves suburban traffic. The two-story building features simple platforms with basic roofing and handles daily commutes to nearby towns including Dolgoprudny, Lobnya, Dmitrov, and Kimry.
The station was built between 1897 and 1902 as a private venture to connect Moscow with towns like Kashin, Kalyazin, and Rybinsk. It was later expanded and gained a metro connection in 1988 when Savyolovskaya metro station opened nearby.
The station takes its name from the nearby village of Savyolovo, now part of Kimry in the Tver region. It functions as a vital link for local residents who commute between their home areas and the city each day.
The station connects directly with the nearby Savyolovskaya metro station and has a bus terminal for regional services. During rush hours the station becomes crowded, so it is wise to arrive early and allow extra time for movement through the space.
From 2004 to 2007, the station operated a direct train service to Sheremetyevo Airport, which was replaced by a faster service in 2008. This rail connection cuts airport travel time to around 35 minutes.
