History
On Tovarnaya line
The station was constructed as a branch of the Primorsky Rail Terminal to Flugov Post line in May, 1904 by engineer Pyotr Alexandrovich Avenarius.[2]
Catastrophic flooding on 23 September 1924 closed the Primorsky Rail Terminal. Another branch to the Finlyandsky Rail Terminal was constructed in 1925[3] and 1927.[4] By 1926, the line to Sestroretsk had been laid through Lanskaya station.[5] In 1929, the line was reconstructed. The station Flyugov post was no longer required and was dismantled.[6]
