Joseph Stalin's deadly railway to nowhere

In the Russian Arctic lies buried an unfinished railway built by prisoners of Stalin's gulags. For decades no-one talked about it.

one of Joseph Stalin's cruellest and most ambitious projects - the Trans-Polar Mainline.

It was his attempt to conquer the Arctic - part of what he called his Great Plan for the Transformation of Nature.

He discovered that in Soviet Russia, nature transforms you!

And this is the guy that Putin's feverishly rehabilitating (and they use the Soviet term for it) . . .
