History
Establishment under the Russian Empire
A second-class station[1] appeared near the Lyzhinsky farm (and two kilometers from the Frolova farm) in connection with the construction of the Gryaze-Tsaritsyn railway in 1868–1871 on the territory of the Don Host Oblast. Initially, the station was called Mikhailo-Chertkovo in honor of the acting ataman of the Don Army from 1874 to 1881, Lieutenant General Mikhail Chertkov. The station had a train station, a water pumping station, and a large locomotive depot. In 1875, it received a new name after the nearby Archeda river.[2]

On 4 August 2025, the station was set on fire.[3] The fire was suspected to have been caused by a crashed drone.[4]
