South Urals Railway

It is responsible for operating the railway network in several regions, including Orenburg, Chelyabinsk, Kurgan, and Sverdlovsk regions, as well as the Republic of Bashkortostan.

It's important to note that certain sections of the railway pass through the territory of present-day Kazakhstan.

The Chelyabinsk–Yekaterinburg line was constructed in the 1880s and early 1890s as part of the Trans-Siberian Railway (its southern route).

Several other lines were added during Joseph Stalin's industrialization to serve the Magnitogorsk Iron and Steel Works and other newly built factories.
