The story

The railway is headquartered in Kaliningrad. Most lines were built by the Prussian Eastern Railway before the Second World War. The railway terminal in Kaliningrad, currently known as Yuzhny Vokzal, was opened in 1929 as Königsberg Hauptbahnhof. It was separated from the Pribaltic Railway after the breakup of the Soviet Union in 1992.

Two lines are electrified and are used by commuter EMU traffic.

Many railways that did exist before World war 2 were closed down after the war. Most remaining railways were rebuilt from standard gauge to Russian gauge. The exception is the railway from Kaliningrad towards Mamonovo and Elbląg in Poland, which has one track of each gauge.
