Zoya Ilyinichna Glezer is the largest Russian micropaleontologist, a specialist in siliceous microfossils — Cenozoic diatoms and silicoflagellates. Since the 1960s, she systematically studied Paleogene siliceous microfossils from various regions of the country and therefore was an indispensable participant in the development of unified stratigraphic schemes for Paleogene siliceous plankton of various regions of the USSR. She made a great contribution to the creation of the newest Paleogene schemes in the south of European Russia and Western Siberia, to the correlations of the Paleogene deposits of the Kara Sea.

The problem of the need for construction of railways in the North Caucasus as a strategically and economically important enterprise for maintaining and developing the viability of the region is considered. Preconditions and opinions on the appropriateness of railway connection are given. To achieve this goal in the region, it was decided to establish a new joint-stock company of the Rostov-Vladikavkaz railway. The dynamics is investigated from planning, choosing the final direction from those proposed by the engineers who carried out surveys on the ground, to the actual opening of permanent traffic on the first (main) line of the Rostov-on-Don - Vladikavkaz Society - the first highway that connected the Caucasus with the central part of the state in 1875 ... A brief description of this path is given. The geography of the line was investigated. Some stages of further development are given, the results and opinions obtained during the operation of the road are summed up. The issue of location and development of the Rostov railway junction is considered. Already in the first years of operation, the enormous potential of railway transport in the North Caucasus was obvious, not only strategically, but also as an economically important enterprise that opened up new opportunities for the development of the region, which in turn made the railway the main industrial giant.

One of the main priorities of transport policy in the EU is to take measures to support railway transport as an environmentally friendly transport mode. An interesting challenge for a railway transport operation is represented with cost items for its operation. This problem is exacerbated if transport flows are routed through a congested railway infrastructure. If some or all transport takes place on congested rail infrastructure, the carrier’s costs increase, which may ultimately lead to withdrawal from the market. The article deals with the impact of insufficient capacity on the rail carrier’s costs. We used a pre-cost calculation methodology to calculate the rail carrier’s additional costs due to the insufficient railway network capacity based on detailed calculation of train costs and proposed a methodology for carrier decision-making in case of insufficient rail infrastructure capacity. The case study showed that the use of a diversion track in case of insufficient planned rail line capacity may not be advantageous for carriers, even with a longer waiting time for capacity to be released. One of the ways to eliminate the negative effects of congested railway infrastructure is investment in the increase of its capacity.

The purpose of this paper is to define the role and place of the transportation component of the adjacent subjects of two countries in their economic potential for implementation of intergovernmental cooperation. The role and place of the transportation component in estimation of the benefits of the transportation and geographical position becomes evident only when the population, resources and economy of the border regions are jointly analyzed. The analysis of such parameters of the border regions of Russia (Western Siberia) and Kazakhstan performed by means of comparison and association of their economic and transportation potentials, showed that territorial production complexes in them have been developed, and the prospective development within the framework of the Eurasian Economic Union will be determined by the joint use of the benefits of the transportation and geographic position implemented with participation of railway transport.

The article presents the content and results of a set of studies on the scientific and methodological support for the modernization of structures and devices built according to the old loading gauge standards or its expired durability, the entire 1520 (1524) mm gauge railway network under the loading gauge standard T for rolling stock, allowing to increase axle and running loads of cars and due to this — the mass of trains, as well as solve the global problem that arose in the middle of the last century to increase the efficiency of the most important branch of Russia — railway transport. Variants of increased loading gauges were developed (Тпр for any rolling stock, Тц for tanks, Та — for electric rolling stock, Тб — for passenger cars), which were included in the GOST 9238 – 83 “Loading gauges of railway rolling stock and structure clearance” and Ministry of railways instructions (no. TsP/4425 — for clearance of structures; no. TsV/4422 — for loading gauge of the rolling stock and no. TsD/4172 — for transportation of oversized and heavy (nonstandard) freights), as well as zonal and flatcars loading gauges. Scientific and methodological studies carried out by the institute during the half-century period (mid-XX — early XXI) identified structures and devices that limit the use of rolling stock of loading standard T, its elimination during 1982 – 2005, as well as transition of industrial enterprises to the production of new freight and passenger cars of increased loading standards Тпр and Та, developed by the Institute. This identification was made on the basis of the overall classification of all railway infrastructure and access railroads of the former USSR. New regulatory framework for railway rolling stock loading gauges and structure clearance (GOST 9238 – 2013) was developed based on a global survey of actual dimensions of all structures and infrastructure devices of the 1520 (1524) mm gauge railways (area 1520). Railway Research Institute of the Ministry of Railway Transport (currently, JSC “VNIIZhT”) made scientific and methodological support for the modernization of infrastructure objects, exhausted its life span for the 100-year period of operation. Scientific and methodological support carried out by the Institute allowed the creation and operation of rolling stock with an increased loading gauge standard Тпр: for freight traffic — with increased running loads by 2 ton/m or more compared to European railways; for passenger traffic — more comfortable and 39 % more spacious double-deck compartment cars. Increasing the loading gauge of the rolling stock provides increased efficiency of rail transport by increasing productivity, reducing the required fleet of cars for the transportation of equal volumes as well as operating costs. At the same time achieved annual total economic effect amounts to 2,205 billion rubles. Introduction of the flatcar loading gauge contributes to the organization of transportation of heavy trucks by rail and, therefore, improve the environmental situation.

Currently, the railway network is widely developed, many of which pass through settlements and cities; in some proximity to buildings, including high-rise buildings. The movement of trains on the track causes a certain level of vibrations that are transmitted through the ground to nearby buildings, and cause vibrations of various structures. In this regard, when designing railway tracks or constructing buildings in some proximity to railways, it is necessary to assess the possible vibration impact of rail transport on structures at the design stage and, if necessary, provide measures to protect buildings from negative vibration effects. However, to date, there has not been a standardized method for determining the vibration level at the design stage. The method of predicting the vibration impact of railway transport presented in the article will make it possible to estimate the degree of vibration impact of railway transport on buildings and structures at the design stage, and, if necessary, develop design solutions for vibration isolation that protect buildings and structures from negative vibration effects and create acoustic comfort conditions in the premises.

The study focuses on the Kushnarenkovo-type ceramics from sites in the Cis-Urals and those from sites of the Bakalskaya culture in Western Siberia (300–800 AD). This type was first described in the 1960s as an indicator of major migrations relating to Magyar origins. The analysis of forms, technology, and decoration makes it possible to identify imported ware from local replicas of the Aral ceramics. Certain vessels from the Dzhetyasar cemeteries Altynasar-4, Bedaikasar-2, Kosasar-2 and -3, and Tompakasar, owned by museums, can be attributed to the Bakalskaya culture, whereas others were prototypes for replicas manufactured in the forest-steppe zone. The statistical analysis of the burial rite of contemporaneous Uralian and Western Siberian cultures reveals no features correlating with Kushnarenkovo vessels. These facts, along with the analysis of decorated utensils, coins, prestigious ornaments, and belt sets, evidence intense caravan trade between the Urals, Western Siberia, and Kazakhstan. Rather than an indicator of a specific culture, then, the Kushnarenkovo ceramics indicate a subculture of upper social strata, served by itinerant craftsmen or by manufacturers at trade factories.
