The '''Primorskaya line''' was the second line constructed by the [Primorskaya railway](/source/Primorskaya_railway), near [St. Petersburg](/source/St._Petersburg), [Russia](/source/Russia). It is now part of the [Oktyabrskaya Railway](/source/Oktyabrskaya_Railway) and was electrified in 1952.

== History ==

Its first stage was opened on July 12, 1894 - the line reached [Lakhta](/source/Lakhta_railway_station). 
Second stage was opened on October 31, 1894; the railway left on coast of [Gulf of Finland](/source/Gulf_of_Finland) opposite to [island Kotlin](/source/Kotlin_Island) and was integrated with a steamship line. 
Later, November 26, the same year, the third turn of a railroad line was opened. 
The line reached a final point - the [cities of Sestroretsk](/source/Sestroretsk)<ref name=terijoki.rw_dir_sestr />
