Baikal-Amur Mainline classified as “Secret” – VSP.RU
Last year marked the 90th anniversary of the construction of the Baikal-Amur Railway. Yes, yes, do not be surprised: it was in 1932, and not in 1974, that the decision was first made at the highest state level to build a second through steel track in the east of the country. And then two resolutions of the Council of People’s Commissars of the USSR were issued, which were called so – “On the construction of the Baikal-Amur Railway”. And if the original – April – resolution set the task of starting design, survey and construction work, then the next – October – was appointed the general and only contractor: the Main Directorate of Correctional Labor Camps (GULAG) of the OGPU.
nine0003
The need to start building a new railway line was caused by the sharp activation of militaristic Japan in the Far East.
Its troops actually occupied the northeastern provinces of China (Manchuria) and reached the land borders of our country. There was a real danger that in the event of an armed conflict we could lose control over the Trans-Siberian Railway, which in places came close to the state border, stretching from Transbaikalia to Primorye. At first, the main work on the construction of the BAM was concentrated in the Far East, where it was necessary to lay a steel track north from the Trans-Siberian Railway – in the direction of the villages of Tynda (Amur Region), Urgal, Volochaevka and further to Komsomolsk-on-Amur (Khabarovsk Territory). And already at 19In 37, the first working train arrived in Tynda, the future capital of the eastern section of the new highway.
And just by that time, the general direction of its route was determined: Taishet – Bratsk – Ust-Kut – the northern tip of Lake Baikal – Tynda – Komsomolsk-on-Amur – Sovetskaya Gavan. At the same time, the order of the People’s Commissariat of Internal Affairs of the USSR “On organizing the construction of the Baikal-Amur Mainline” appeared, according to which, in a short time, preparations were made and the first kilometers of the steel track were laid on its initial section from Taishet to Bratsk.
nine0003
Censorship punctures
I must say that the construction of the BAM was a state secret from the very beginning and any information about it was classified. To what degree of secrecy – “Secret”, “Top Secret” or “Special Importance” – they were classified, we do not know. But the fact that starting from the 1930s and until the mid-1970s such information, with rare exceptions, did not penetrate the Soviet press, is a fact.
And what was my surprise when, leafing through the “East Siberian Truth” of the pre-war years, I came across information with the abbreviations NKVD and BAM three times. nine0003
The first note in the issue of October 30, 1937: “The Taishet-Brotherhood Directorate of the NKVD for work in Taishet and on the periphery announced the admission of specialists with experience from economists, planners, construction technicians and mechanical engineers to foresters, forestry transport engineers, engineers and practitioners in sawmilling, harvesting and cutting special assortments.
True, in this report there is no mention of the Baikal-Amur Mainline, because representatives of the GULAG Railway Construction Department have not yet appeared in the space between Taishet and Bratsk, but the forestry department of a powerful organization has designated its presence here. nine0003
Second note dated March 10, 1938: “It was announced that the construction of the Baikal-Amur Railway requires engineers, technicians, raters, cost estimators, economists and accountants, suppliers, administrative and economic workers. You can apply in person to the representative office of the BAMGULAG NKVD in Irkutsk on 38 December Events Street, or in writing with a detailed biography at the address: Taishet station, BAM NKVD, personnel department.
And, finally, the third, dated March 4, 1940 years old: “The BAM project management needs vehicles in Irkutsk to transport goods to Nizhneangarsk, Buryat-Mongolian Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic and back. BAMproject also needs rooms for single engineers.
”
Of course, this is an obvious blunder of censorship, and the reason for this is simple: the defenders of state secrets did not bother to carefully read the newspaper from cover to cover, including the announcement department.
“The second railway line in the east of the Union…
Before the beginning of the Great Patriotic War, according to data published after the abolition of censorship at the end of 19In the 1980s, on the western section of the highway, it was possible to prepare for laying 124 kilometers of track from the zero picket to the Chuna River, the subgrade and artificial structures at a distance of 76 kilometers, and to lay the rails up to 38 kilometers. And after the war, work unfolded along the entire route from Taishet to Ust-Kut, which is more than 700 kilometers, and about 35 thousand people were employed in them – mostly prisoners, civilians, as well as Japanese prisoners of war.
In February 1946, elections to the Supreme Soviet of the USSR were held in the country, and soon its first session took place.
With a report on the five-year plan for 1946-1950, N. Voznesensky, chairman of the State Planning Committee of the USSR, spoke at it. In the section devoted to the distribution of productive forces in the Union republics and economic regions, he said: “In the regions of Eastern Siberia, an artificial liquid fuel industry is being created, railway construction is being launched, ensuring the creation of a second railway line in the east of the Union and the development of new regions.”
After that, a meeting of party activists was held in Irkutsk together with the leaders of regional organizations and enterprises. It presented and discussed a specific list of large facilities, the construction of which was planned to begin before the end of the five-year plan. The Baikal-Amur Mainline was not named in this list, however, as evidenced by Vostochno-Sibirskaya Pravda, among those who were given the floor to speak at the meeting, the head of Taishetstroy (read – Taishetlag) I. Orlovsky was named.
From what he said, the newspaper cited only a small fragment: “The development of new construction projects in the Baikal region obliges us to quickly restructure the work of regional communications organizations, health care, and public education, since new settlements have already arisen and will continue to arise, the population will grow.” nine0003
At the same time, A. Yefimov, the first secretary of the regional committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks, set a number of tasks for studying the productive forces of the region and practical assistance to new construction projects at a meeting of scientists from Irkutsk. In particular, in his opinion, “required the broadest formulation of research related to hydropower construction, the construction of the Lena Railway.”
…and the development of new areas”
After that, the mention of the construction of the BAM and specifically the Taishet-Lena railway line disappeared in Vostochka for eight years.
However, those who knew how to read a newspaper between the lines understood that in the taiga hinterland in the north of the region, without a new latitudinal steel highway, the economy could not develop, primarily the timber industry, old settlements would be improved and new settlements would appear, and the number of inhabitants would increase. nine0003

September 6th. One of the young cities of the region, Taishet, is growing and improving. Over the past two years, in addition to a cinema, a new seven-year school, a viaduct across the railway, a major overhaul and a doubling of the city’s House of Culture have been built in it.
For seven months of this year, 20,000 square meters of roads and about 3,000 linear meters of new sidewalks have been laid in the city. nine0003

When everything secret becomes clear
And finally, on November 6, 1954, East Siberian Truth in a report under the heading “Taishet – Lena. The New Railway Line” informed readers: “The 700-kilometer Taishet-Lena railway under construction in the north of the Baikal region is in temporary operation. It has already given output to the timber enterprises of the Chunsky and Bratsky districts, and made it possible to speed up the construction of a large Osetrovsky river port on the Lena River to supply the north of the Irkutsk region and the Yakut Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic. On the road between the stations of Bratsk and Zayarsk, an almost kilometer-long bridge across the Angara River was erected. nine0003
It turned out that back in 1947 the first working train arrived at the Bratsk-1 station, and in 1951 – to Ust-Kut. During this time, a huge amount of work has been done: 24 million cubic meters of land have been shoveled, and a significant part of it by hand, 748 artificial structures have been erected, 840 kilometers of main and station tracks have been laid, dozens of transport and industrial infrastructure facilities, many hundreds of office and residential buildings have been built. Soon, a passenger station was put into operation at the terminal station Lena. Strict and at the same time openwork white building with waiting rooms, buffet and other facilities can accommodate about 500 people. nine0003
After the abolition of censorship on the road, the large-circulation newspaper “Angaro-Lena Magistral” began to be published – the governing body of the Angarsk construction of the Ministry of Transport Construction of the USSR (“Angarstroy”) and dorprofsozha with a frequency of once a week and a circulation of two thousand copies. A variety of information about the life of the new transport artery, its impact on the development of the regional economy began to appear in the local, regional and central press and on the radio.
For example, it became known that in connection with the arrival of the railway on the banks of the Lena and the expansion of the port of Osetrovo, the Kachug shipyard was forced to curtail the production of flat-bottomed vessels – karbas – and focus on the assembly of dry cargo ships and tankers with a carrying capacity of up to 800 tons, refrigerators for the transport of perishable goods. nine0003
In the conditions of glasnost, journalists could not ignore how quickly passenger traffic grew on the northern highway. If in 1952 their number barely exceeded 300 thousand people, then in 1955 it reached 580 thousand. Moreover, long-distance trains “Moscow – Lena” and “Krasnoyarsk – Lena” with trailer cars from Irkutsk were put into circulation in Taishet. And if at first the train from the capital departed twice a week, then by the time the road was put into permanent operation and included in the East Siberian Railway – four times. See
Congratulations from the highest level
Commissioning of the new “piece of iron” – and this is no less than dozens of stations and sidings, 5 locomotive depots, 9 power plants, 19 water supply points, residential buildings with a total area of 90 thousand square meters, schools , kindergartens and nurseries, canteens, clubs, medical institutions – occurred in October 1958.
The Central Committee of the CPSU and the Council of Ministers of the USSR congratulated the builders on the great and long-awaited (20 years have passed since the first peg was hammered in!) Event. “This railway line makes it possible to better use the great natural wealth of the northern regions of Siberia, ensure uninterrupted transportation of goods for the construction of the world’s largest Bratsk hydroelectric power station, and will contribute to the successful development of a new metallurgical base in the east of the country,” the congratulatory letter said. nine0003
In response to the high appreciation of the work, the staff of Angarstroy undertook to speed up work on the construction of the new Taishet-Abakan steel road, which had begun at that time, the electrification of a part of the Krasnoyarsk railway and the removal of a section of the Taishet – line that had just been put into permanent operation from the flood zone of the Bratsk hydroelectric power station. Lena.
Yes, it so happened that its builders had to do everything all over again on a span of no less than 175 kilometers. And there is no fault in this for them and those who even before the war designed this section of the BAM. After all, then and in the first post-war years, the construction of a hydroelectric power station near the Padunsky Thresholds on the Angara River was not included even in the most daring plans for the development of energy in the country. But then came the 19th52, and the XIX Congress of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks issued a directive: “Start work on the use of the energy resources of the Angara River for the development of aluminum, chemical, mining and other industries on the basis of cheap electricity and local sources of raw materials.”
As a result, we read in the issue of Vostochno-Sibirskaya Pravda for November 26, 1955: “From the Bratsk-1 station of the Taishet-Lena railway along a temporary 30-kilometer branch line laid along the right bank of the Angara to the village of Osinovka, next to the future dam The first train passed the Bratsk hydroelectric power station.
In it, loaded with building materials and panel houses, there were also about 300 passengers. nine0003
The command to start laying an access steel track to the HPP under construction was also received by the divisions of the Angarstroy Department located on the opposite bank of the Angara River. Here, a 40-kilometer-long branch started from the existing Morgudon junction, and on it the transport builders had to build the Anzeba and Padunskiye Porogi stations, the Galachinsky and Bratskoe More junctions. Moreover, it was built not in a temporary, but in a capital design, since it was just the left-bank section of the removal from the flood zone by the reservoir of the Bratsk hydroelectric power station of the Taishet-Lena railway. By the way, in addition to it, 248 settlements with 67 thousand inhabitants fell under flooding, including old Bratsk, the regional centers of Balagansk and Ust-Uda, 57 industrial enterprises, 135 thousand hectares of forest, 166 thousand hectares of agricultural land, on which dozens of collective farms were located.
nine0003
And if the section from Morgudon to the site of the hydroelectric power station was laid in a relatively short period of time, and by the end of 1958, goods went through it not only for the construction of the station, but also for the city of Bratsk, then the right-bank part from the village of Osinovka to the Vidim station delivered much more hassle. Here, a watershed mountain range between the Angara and Lena stood in their way, and in order to overcome it, they had to make a recess 18 meters deep and almost a kilometer long with the help of a large amount of explosives. nine0003
Despite the difficulties, the contractor met the deadline for commissioning a new section of the highway, and at this time, the builders and installers of the hydroelectric power plant – its first unit. So on May 14, 1961, Vostochka had every reason to solemnly announce: “Yesterday, the builders of the Angarstroy Administration completed laying the 175-kilometer removal of the Taishet-Lena railway section from the flood zone of the Bratsk hydroelectric power station from the Morgudon station to Vidim.
So today, the first train with honorary passengers will arrive from Vidim to the Gidrostroitel station, on the right bank of the Padunsky narrowing. And after another month and a half later, on the lower tier of a large concrete overpass – the future dam of the hydroelectric complex – the rails are laid, the trains will go along it from one side to the other. nine0003
Indeed, on July 1, another front page news: “On the afternoon of June 29, the first freight train with cement for the Yakut Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic passed along the new section of the Taishet-Lena railway from Morgudon station to the east, including the path across the Angara River along the large concrete trestle of the Bratsk Hydroelectric Power Station” .
And then, as in the song “From Baikal to Amur…”
There were other news related to the labor successes of the Angarstroy team. Back in the late 1950s, he joined the construction of the Taishet-Abakan railway line in the south of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, then became the general contractor of the 214-kilometer branch line from the Khrebtovaya station to the third stage of the Angara hydropower cascade – the Ust-Ilimsk hydroelectric power station, and took an initiative to electrify and lay the second routes from Taishet to Ust-Kut.

Meanwhile, in March 1967, the Central Committee of the CPSU and the Council of Ministers of the USSR adopted a closed resolution on the resumption of design and survey work along the entire BAM route from Ust-Kut in the Irkutsk region to Komsomolsk-on-Amur in the Khabarovsk Territory. And already in October of the next year, Vostochno-Sibirskaya Pravda informs readers: “The long-standing plan to continue the Taishet-Lena railway further east up to the Amur in 18 design and survey institutes of the country is gaining visible features. The Baikal-Amur Mainline will stretch for 3,500 kilometers, 300 of which will be laid by the staff of the Angarstroy Department. Therefore, these days, at the Gidrostroitel station in Bratsk, a meeting is being held on the design, construction and operation of the subgrade in the conditions of the North, convened by the USSR Ministries of Railways and Transport Construction. nine0003
Then other news on this topic appeared in the newspaper, moreover, with complete silence of the censors.
For example, about the fact that the city of Nizhneudinsk was chosen as the site for the construction of a plant by the Ministry of Transport Construction for the production of five thousand inventory container-type residential buildings per year and they will find application on the route of the future Baikal-Amur Mainline. Or that in Irkutsk, in connection with a significant increase in the volume of railway construction in the eastern regions of the Soviet Union, a new design institute, Vostsibtransproekt, was created, which will primarily deal with design and survey work on the new highway. And on August 1971 years old, celebrating their 25th anniversary, the builders of the Angarstroy Department pledged to take part in the construction of the next section of the BAM until the end of the five-year plan that has begun.
Finally, in December 1973, in response to the congratulations of the Central Committee of the CPSU and the Council of Ministers of the USSR in connection with a great achievement – the successful completion of construction and commissioning of the Khrebtovaya – Ust-Ilimskaya railway line – the transport builders of the region gave the floor on January 1, 1974 to begin construction of the Baikal-Amur railway line from Ust-Kut to the east.
