BAM Road doubts
Hi
I am planning a trip across Russia next summer and I would like to do the western part of the BAM road, from Tayshet to Sverobaykalsk.
Thanks to the "BAM Road" report I've became a fan!; and my idea is to get as close as possible to the rail track, avoiding tarmac
I've been (earth) googling this part of the region and came across the 'closed city' of Zheleznogosrsk.
What options do I have?
One is to follow the p419 from Vidim (or Stosgorodok) to Khrebtovaya bypassing Zheleznogosrsk.
But, could it be possible to follow the rail track from Vidim to Selezvevsky, crosssing the river to Shestakovo and go on to Korshunovsky, and through forest tracks, get to the BAM rail tracks again, near Khrebtovaya?
The case above is an example of the 2 different lines one can see on the OSM map, between Bratsk and Ust-Kust. The p419 road and the BAM rail track sometimes diverge. My general question would be of one has to follow the p419 or if its possible to go all the way by the rail tracks.
Cheers
PB
