Dzhankoi-Kherson Railway Building on the South of Ukraine/ Dzankoi-Chersono Gelezinkelio Statyba Ukrainos Pietuose (Report‪)‬

For today the issue of regional (still it is of great importance) railway building in Ukraine remains poorly investigated, this fact indicates the topicality of the offered problem. Dzhankoi-Kherson railway was built by the Black Sea railway society. It started from the station Dzhankoi of the South railway and went to the north-west, it turned westward after crossing the Dnipro below the Ingulets and then it was connected with Kherson-Mykolaiv railway near Kherson, so it passed through the modern Kherson area and the north territory of the Autonomous republic of Crimea. This railroad line had to connect the station Uman of the South-west railway and the station Tuapse of Tuapse-Novosenaki railway line of the Black Sea railway society, which was already building and was settled to build on July, 10, 1915 and characterized as a transit line (Konovalov 2010). It should be mentioned, that regulations of the Black Sea railway society were ratified on August, 24, 1912 (Konovalov 2010). Railway line direction was approved in summer, 1915, then the line was divided into sections, rights of way were outlined and contracts of land purchase were concluded with peasants (Konovalov 2010).
