Ben Barby sent along a few links showing some of the abandoned railways of the former Soviet Union:
Abandoned passenger cars at the depot in Sukhumi, Abkhazia.
Stalin's Lost Railway, built deep in the heart of Northern Siberia, between the city of Salekhard and the town of Igarka, with no connection to the rest of the Soviet railway system.
More abandoned equipment in Brest, Belarus
