History

This station was once a ghost station from 1998 to 1999. The station were in a state of suspended construction as the heavy industry factories it should have served were closed after the Velvet Revolution. Trains slowed when passing through the dimly lit station. As the whole industrial area was slowly revitalized, the station was finally completed.

gollark: Most people don't care and tight integration simplifies things.
gollark: Your hope is wrong, then.
gollark: Never outside of really niche things.
gollark: Hmm. This G7 is apparently not really available cheaply locally, has an overly large screen with a notch, and does not have a replaceable battery.
