Savyolovo
Savyolovo (Russian: Савёлово) is a railway station in Tver Oblast, Russia, located at 57°49′N 37°16′E / 57.817°N 37.267°E on the west bank of the Volga River. Its expansion at the beginning of the 20th century was due to the opening there in 1901 of a railway station on a new direct line to Moscow. The station was chiefly intended to serve the town of Kimry, of which Savyolovo now forms part, on the opposite bank of the river.
Railway station
The station is the terminus of an elektrichka (short-distance passenger electric train) service from the Savyolovsky Station in Moscow by way of Dmitrov and Taldom.
Beyond Savyovolo the railway mostly serves rural locations in Tver Oblast. One of the routes, Savyolovo–Sonkovo, passes through Kashin and Kalyazin; another leads to Uglich in Yaroslavl Oblast.
