More than a million Russians mark their professional holiday - Day of the railway. It is the oldest holiday industry in the country and dates back to July 91896 when he was first proclaimed in the order of the Minister of Communications of the Russian Empire - Prince Michael Hilkova. This date is chosen not by chance - it tied up with the birthday of Emperor Nicholas I, in which in Russia were built first and Tsarskoye Selo railway line Petersburg and Moscow. In those years, the feast of any central or local rail agencies were not working, and in the evening in the ceremonial hall of the Pavlovsk held a gala dinner and a concert. At major stations and railway stations arranged thanksgiving. Thus the industry was celebrated holiday until June 251917. After that, the Bolsheviks came to power, abolished all holidays, established under the tsarist regime and Railroad Day reappeared in the calendar only after 19 years.

In connection with such success at a meeting of workers in the sector, held in Moscow on 25-30 July 1935 it was decided to appeal to the leadership of the country to continue to celebrate the successes of their labor. According to the decision of the CEC of the USSR of July 281936 July 30 every year, it was decided to celebrate the "day-Union Railway USSR." The new holiday declared by popular and its first celebration in the shortest possible time organized around the country.
