Minsk Underground/Metro
Minsk wanted to build Underground in the 60`s. But, because during that time the population was less than a million, the construction could not begin. It was an unspoken rule: Only city with million or more denizens can have a metro.
So, it`s said that Minsk government came up with the plan to increase the population - encouraging rural population to move into Minsk by offering them favourable terms.
And, the 1 000 000`s citizen was born in 1972 and the Undergound`s construction began in 1977.
Few details:
1) It`s the fastest in FSU countries: trains speed is up to 80km/hour (~49 miles/hour).
2) Minsk underground has only 2 lines: Moskovskaya and Avtozavodskaya lines.
3) The intersection station is 'Oktyabr`skaya'/'Kupalovskaya' station in the very center of Minsk.
4) The total length of metro`s 23 stations is 27,6 km (~17.1 miles).
5) First train goes at 5.32 am, last one - at 1.02 am.
6) Platforms are 100 meters long and 10 meters wide.
7) Trains run every 3-4 min during rush hours and every 5-10 the rest of the day.
