The project is implemented by the creative workshop “Nevskii batalyst” collaborative with media-group “Krasnii Kvadrat”, supported by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education, OAO “Russian Railways” and a social organization “Victory volunteers”.

On the occasion of the train`s return to Moscow there were held a tour on immersive installation. The train has 12 rolling stocks and each of them shares its unique history – the “pre-war” rolling stock, “in the field” rolling stock, the hospital rolling stock, the trench-rolling stock, the death camp-rolling stock and etc.

Nikolay Ovsienko, the Deputy Minister of Culture of the Russian Federation, mentioned the importance of the train: “We have a unique opportunity to learn about heroic lives of our people who made this history and transported ammunition in the field during the World War II. Diving into this reality is enormously important for our people!”
