Project Status:
The Pytalovo interstate station belongs to the October railway, located in the Pskov region on the border with Latvia.
As a result of the collapse of the USSR, the railways were disconnected at the borders with the Baltic countries and the CIS, which required the establishment of new border crossings in a short time. On the instructions of the Ministry of Railways of the Russian Federation, Lengiprotrans developed a project for the reconstruction of a number of border stations, including the Pytalovo station.
The main difficulty was the lack of a regulatory framework for the design and construction of railway checkpoints, agreed by the customs and border departments of Russia.
