Lev Tolstoy railway station

History

Astapovo railway station, built in 1890 on the intersection of the KozlovVolovo and MoscowYelets routes, was named after a nearby selo of Astapovo (Аста́пово), which was founded no later than the mid-17th century.[5] The name derives from the masculine first name Ostap.[5] The Russian writer Leo Tolstoy fell ill at the Astapovo station and died here on November 7, 1910.[5] To commemorate this event, the station was renamed Lva Tolstogo (Льва Толсто́го) in 1918.[5] In 1932, the name of the station and of the settlement was changed to its modern form.[5]

gollark: I am not in any way selling or assisting in selling pizza and I DO NOT work for pizza companies in any form. This is NOT true. I have not in any way been sponsored by pizza companies. There have been no advertising agreements whatsoever with any companies producing pizza or otherwise to have me subliminally advertise pizza, as my profile picture is not a pizza. Since it is not a pizza, this is obviously not pizza advertisement whatsoever. No monetary exchanges or otherwise have occurred with companies engaged in pizza production for any reason relating to my profile picture. It's not pizza. There were no deals, under-the-table or otherwise, with pizza companies. No pizza companies pay for any kind of advertising involving me. I'm DEFINITELY not paid by pizza companies to do ANY pizza advertising or sales.
