Elektrozavodska (Kryvyi Rih Metrotram)
Elektozavodska ( uk, Електрозаводська; russian: Элекрозаводская, ''Elektrozavodskaya'') is a station of the Kryvyi Rih Metrotram. In honour of the city's 225th anniversary on 27 May 2000, Elektrozavodska was opened on an existing track between Industrialna and Zarichna stations. The station is a subterranean, shallow level construction with two side platforms. A central wall with ten circular archways bisects the section, and supports the roofs. Grey colour tones are employed along with ceramic tiles arranged in a brickwork pattern on the walls. The dark shade make the station appear particularly gloomy and the darkest in the small system, as most of the lighting is switched off to conserve electricity (ironic as the station's name translates as ''electricity-factory''). From the middle of the station are two staircases leading to a large surface vestibule (the only underground station in Ukraine with such arrangement). Nevertheless, it does r ...

Kryvyi Rih Metrotram
The Kryvyi Rih Metrotram or the Kryvyi Rih Metro ''( uk, Криворізьке метро)'' is a partially underground rapid transit Rapid transit, metro system that serves the city of Kryvyi Rih, the seventh-largest city in Ukraine. Despite its designation as a "metro tram" and its use of tram cars as rolling stock, the Kryvyi Rih Metro is fully grade separation, grade-separated both from roads and from the city's conventional tram lines, with enclosed stations and tracks. History The design of the Metrotram seen in Kryvyi Rih has its roots in the socialist urban planning guidelines that were formulated in the 1960s, based on models of the emergence of new urban centers and the transport arrangements that would suit them, in particular, how a small settlement would grow into a full-sized city, and at which point a rapid transit system would need to be built. Kryvyi Rih and Volgograd were both chosen to test whether the construction of a full-scale metro system could be avoided ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Industrialna (Kryvyi Rih Metrotram)
Insdustrialna ( uk, Iндустрiальна; russian: Индустриальная, translit=Industrialnaya) is a station on the Kryvyi Rih Metrotram. It was opened on 25 October 1999 as the starting station on the third stage of the system. Industrialna is located on the edge of the ''Industrialny raion'' of the city. Externally, the station is located on ground level, with side platforms encased in a large structure of 10 meters high with an additional 24-meter cantilevered ''"vestibule"'', where additional pillars are used to support it. The exits and entrances are done through a tunnel under the station with exits to the raion and on the eastern side to the '' Nikopol- Zhovti Vody road''. Nearby is also the Kryvyi Rih Central Mining equipment maintenance Plant ''(KVRZ)'', whose workers use the station (hence the name, ''Industrial''). Although the station was opened in 1999, shortage of finances left it in a very depressed state. Exteriorly, bits of the aluminium covering a ...

Zarichna (Kryvyi Rih Metrotram)
Zarichna ( uk, Зарiчна; russian: Заречная, translit=Zarechnaya) is a station of the Kryvyi Rih Metrotram, and is presently the northern terminus of the system. The station was opened on 25 October 1999 by the then president Leonid Kuchma and consists of a large two-story structure, with the ground floor consisting of a vestibule and the first floor being on platform level. Encasing it are two mushroom-shaped supports (five on each side), uniting in the top into single roofs. The finish is carried out mostly from plastics although aluminum, marble and granite are also present. However, the latter materials' low quantity is enough to create the impression of their absence. The platform floors are nevertheless riveted with labradorite. Fifty meters to the north of the station is a reversal ring with a small hangar for stands and low-level repairs. In the near future the station might cease to be the terminus if a fourth stage of the tram is built to the ''Terenivskyi ...
