The program "Let's meet at the station!" In the 9th episode, we will continue traveling along the Ventspils-Tukums II station of the Ventspils-Moscow railway line, which was built in 1898. Passenger traffic closed in 2010. Kandava and Spāre stations were opened with the opening of the railway in 1901. Nowadays, you can barely feel the former luxury of the old wooden buildings, because they are covered with brick. But water towers and other buildings related to the stations still tell about the beginning of the 20th century. Both the old and the new station building are side by side in the bays. While the life of one is declining, the railway continues to serve the other. All stations hold stories from both old and new times, which we will reveal on the show. #sif_maf2024
