🚂 How about an autumn trip to Ruskeala Mountain Park in Karelia on a retro steam train?

An impressive black steam locomotive with a solid red star on the boiler, which smokes and steams so much that sometimes you can't see anything around. This is the locomotive of the "Ruskeala Express" - a train that runs between the Sortavala and Ruskeala stations.

📸 The only branded steam train in Russia takes tourists daily to the amazingly beautiful Ruskeala Marble Mountain Park.

🚂 Осеннее путешествие в горный парк Рускеала в Карелию на ретропоезде на паровой тяге. Вот так выглядит это с высоты птичьего поле‌та!

Внушительный черный паровоз с солидной красной звездой на котле, который дымит и парит так, что порой ничего вокруг не видно. Это локомотив "Рускеальского экспресса" — поезда, что курсирует между станциями Сортавала и Рускеала.

Rosatom and the Bolivian state company YLB have signed a contract for the construction of an industrial complex for the production of lithium carbonate at the Uyuni salt marsh in the department of Potosi.

The development of the resource potential of the solar is planned using the Russian technology of direct sorption extraction of lithium, which is not only safe but also environmentally friendly.
The future production complex will not affect the nearest ecosystems in any way, since the use of aggressive reagents is not provided for in the technological process.

Росатом и боливийская государственная компания YLB подписали контракт на сооружение промышленного комплекса по производству карбоната лития на солончаке Уюни в департаменте Потоси.

Будущий производственный комплекс никак не затронет ближайшие экосистемы, так как в технологическом процессе не предусмотрено использование агрессивных реагентов.
