Kosino, Railway station in Vykhino-Zhulebino District, Moscow, Russia
Kosino is a combined railway and metro station in eastern Moscow where regional trains and urban metro lines operate side by side. The station links passengers to Kazansky terminal for long-distance travel and provides metro access to Moscow's central areas.
The railway station opened in 1894 as a connection linking Moscow to regions to the east via the Kazansky and Ryazansky rail lines. The metro component was added later as the city expanded, transforming the site into a key transit point.
The station serves as a daily hub where residents from eastern suburbs pass through on their way to central Moscow. People rely on it to reach their workplaces and move through the city's network of neighborhoods.
The station features clear signage throughout showing connections between the railway and metro sections. Entrances to the metro platforms are marked and easy to locate from the main concourse area.
Long-distance trains and the urban metro system meet at this single facility, allowing travelers to switch between intercity rail and city transit without leaving the building. This dual-purpose design makes it an unusual example of integrated transport infrastructure in Moscow.
