They’ve finally opened three new metro stations in Moscow. Let’s go check!
‘Borisovo Metro Station’.
A lobby.
Very up-to-date.
‘Moscow Metro. Borisovo Metro Station’.
One of the entrances.
Air inlets.
A balcony over the escalator.
A questionable design…
‘Entrance to the city’.
Such organic glass stands can be found at each of the three metro stations…
Just as such benches.
They’ve built five metro stations in two years. The line’s growing really fast!
At the metro station, there is a table with a comments book on it and some stands showing their future plans concerning metro construction.
One of the objects opened.
Plans for the next decade.
Frankly speaking, they look unreal…
Escalators and an elevator.
These people want to leave a comment in the comments book.
One of the workers of the metro station.
Heading to Shipilovskaya metro station.
‘Shipilovskaya Metro Station’.
So far, they opened just one lobby but plan to open a second one shortly.
Ticket machines.
‘Moscow Metro. Shipilovskaya Metro Station’.
And its guards!
Ticket offices.
It’s not as light as Borisovo metro srtation.
An exit.
The comments book is not that popular here.
‘Thank you very much for the new station. Now I have to spend much less time to get to my granddaughter’s place…’
A bombproof container.
A glass stand.
Spectacular – especially all the state-of-the-art lighting fixtures. In New York all that would be filthy in a couple weeks.
They should really add a non-slip texture pad at the edge of the platforms.
Interesting fact about Moscow metro: it is forbidden to photograph the tunnels. You can make photographs of metro cars, stations, escalators – but not the entrances of the tunnels.
Nice. People really should start to use public transport more than cars.
But then again, I don’t think I could bring myself to take the metro, cause I have a perfectly good car.
Not much progress has been made since commie-times, if any.
I wish to visit Moscow and its metro as well.Friends told me that your metro system was very well buit ans very clean as maintance is very welle done. I lived in Montreal Canada and the metro system is hoorific qith dirt, maintenance is poor, noisy, very noisy and safety is minimal, and people can eat in the metro, have their lunch while in the wagon for exemple, which is very bad as it contributes to dirtyness; also newspaer on the fllor at any time. Thanks and keeep going
Youur friend Ubota
U people have the most beautiful,metro stations of the world!!
Very impressive addition in metro service,but one thing is obviously i noticed that all new platforms has no “anti slip” tiles installation at the end the borders of platforms ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
These are actually quite nice. They don’t try to be anything but places of temporary stay while moving from A to B.
Container for bombs – a very necessary thing for the subway. Often find the bomb and do not know where it do with it.
Beautiful, at least all those Moscow dwelling Russians who can’t afford cars and wouldn’t know where to park them if they did own one can travel in style!
Shape of light is impressing. but dose WIFI available at that place?
The stations are very beautiful and modern, and some trains look very old. So much contrast! I like it!
Cool stations. I wish in my city (I live in novosibirsk – siberia) metro stations were being built that fast. And I wish they looked like those… Apparently, I wish for too much
At least one thing is going right direction. The traffic in Moscow is just hell on wheels. You do not want to drive in the city until midnight.
This is nice. Don’t get me wrong, but I like the older ones more. They’re more artistic, much more beautiful. Very “arty”.
This is nice, but not much there. I’m sure part of it is cost. The older ones were WAY more expensive.
This is kinda like, comparing new, modern, glass covered building, to an old Gothic cathedral.
It’s nice, it’s just not the same, not like the others.
Is it built like Chernobyl?
Everything from Russia (unless military equipment) is all junk.
We can only hope that you never become a parent or ever have any other responsible position. Not that your likely to get a position.
That’s not a train station, that’s a work of art. Well done Moscow, very well done!
Cool stations! Though I see one downside of having shiny new stations — they make some of the trains look dingy in comparison.
One thing missing: portrait of Comrade Lenin…
In St.Petersburg metro the signs are doubled in English.
It looks like the security cameras were an afterthought in the overall design. They are needlessly ugly and oppressive. Better integration would make people secure, and yet still feel comfortable.
