Kokshetau—1 station (Kazakh: Көкшетау-1 станциясы|translit=Kökşetau-1 stansiasy; Russian: Станция Кокшета́у-1, Stantsiya Kokshetau-1) also previously known as Kokchetav I station (Russian: Кокчета́в I|r=Kokchetav I) is the main railway station for commuter rail and long-distance trains departing from the city of Kokshetau, Kazakhstan, and an important stop along the Trans-Kazakhstan and South Siberian railways. It is one of two stations in the city.
The railway station is located 1.3km (00.8miles) north-east from the centre of Kokshetau, the capital of Akmola Region in the northern part of Kazakhstan. It was built initially in 1922 and rebuilt in its current form in 1981. The station serves around average attendance of about 600 people.
The station complex provides long-distance and international services (such as Russia and Belarus), and short-distance service commuter trains (elektrichka) for suburbs, minor city stations, and nearby regions. The railway station sits at the eastern end of the long Abai Street, Kokshetau's central thoroughfare. A tall concrete clock guides you to the station.
The first building of the station dates back to 1920 with the launch of the Petropavlovsk—Kokchetav railway. In August, 1920, a decision was adopted to build a railroad from Petropavlovsk to Kokchetav.
In 1921 the construction of this railroad (263 km) started and was completed ahead of schedule by the summer of 1922 and became the first railway of the Soviet period built in Kazakhstan.[2]
The first building of the Kokshetau-1 station was built in 1922, and opened on 2 June. It was then rebuilt in 1949 and served until 1981. The new building of Kokchetav-1 railway station was built in 1981.
