Severomuysky Tunnel Explosion: Blasts in Russia’s Secret Railway

By Thursday evening, numerous sources confirmed the fact of sabotage inside the Severomuysky Tunnel of the Baikal-Amur Railway in the garbage federation. We had to wait for more confirmations to ensure this wasn’t fake. The scale of what happened seemed too significant to accept without verification. Multiple independent sources, local reports, and even Russian official statements began aligning.

But apparently it is real, so we can discuss it substantively. The wait was necessary because of understanding what BAM is, who built it, and why. This isn’t just another railway tunnel — it’s one of the Soviet Union’s most classified military installations. For this — a brief historical excursion.

Why BAM Exists: The Military Railway

The Trans-Siberian Railway (old railroad) runs almost adjacent to the Chinese border. Since in the 60s and 70s Sovok* was at odds with China, the Chinese could cross the 50-70 km from the border in a day or two, leaving the entire Far East without land communication. For this reason, they decided to build BAM much farther north.

Actually, one glance at the map was enough to understand that BAM is exclusively a military road. Where the BAM route passed, there were neither more or less large settlements nor deposits of something requiring urgent rail connection.

The Nuclear Train Secret

A railway platform for strategic missiles was launched. It duplicated nuclear submarine missile carriers that were supposed to ensure retaliatory strike under any scenario. That’s precisely why the route was laid in uninhabited places where they’d be difficult for probable enemy agents to detect.

As far as can be understood, nuclear trains traveled specific routes and could hide in tunnels equipped with special parking stations. Rock formations were selected to be maximally resistant to direct nuclear strike, much more so when the strike landed somewhere aside. The platform was supposed to survive all this, emerge from the tunnel, and fire its missiles even if all Sovok already lay in ruins.

Precisely this part of work was controlled by the military. Most likely, they also mounted equipment in the rocks. Therefore, what was inside, these specialists didn’t know, but they guessed from certain signs only professionals understand. This entire long story says that actually, sabotage occurred in one of Sovok’s most secret places.

The Severomuysky Tunnel Explosion Mystery

Understandably, after Sovok’s collapse, the platform itself was decommissioned and probably destroyed. But as we see, the enemy brought out of conservation even 50s-era tanks and now actively uses them. Therefore, we can quite assume the underground complex for nuclear trains also survived.

Another matter — the enemy currently doesn’t have a railway launch platform. But we can assume he’s now trying to recreate something similar with the same goal, and infrastructure for it exists now. This suggests this tunnel must be guarded somehow — not like an ordinary civilian object, especially in the situation of war with Ukraine and the importance of logistics deployed eastward. It’s simply impossible to believe they use WWII-era guns they dragged to the front, but such important infrastructure they just abandoned.

Considering everything described above, we read enemy source messages that somehow describe the incident. It turns out a train entered the tunnel and four explosions occurred there.

Enemy Propaganda Can’t Explain This

Enemy propaganda talks about short circuit, and moreover, it surely happened — but not before the explosion, but after it. This is the longest railway tunnel built in Sovok, and this is the military railway tunnel. Therefore, everything was definitely done to maximum safety standards. If this hole was supposed to withstand nuclear strike, what short circuit can we talk about at all? And then, what kind of short circuit would ignite and burn at minimum one fuel tank car?

From this follows that with maximum probability, this was precisely a sabotage special operation. Who authored it — not yet clear. But in this case, there’s one country in the world that can, without hesitation, strike the garbage federation’s snout with full force, without looking back at exposing its authorship.

Ukraine’s Longest Reach

Unconditionally — this country is Ukraine. Perhaps something there is indeed connected with orcs reviving the “Scalpel” missile complex. Or perhaps this was a hint to the Kremlin and demonstration of our arms’ length — that we’ll reach anywhere.

Especially since Khuilo loved riding on trains. How it actually is there, perhaps we’ll find out someday. But here’s what’s important — the enemy now also swarms with versions, one scarier than another. And this is wonderful.

The Severomuysky tunnel explosion occurred over 6,000 kilometers from the Ukrainian front. Yet four blasts in Russia’s most secret railway suggest Ukraine’s capabilities extend far beyond what Moscow imagined. The Severomuysky tunnel explosion proves that nowhere in Russia is safe — not even the underground nuclear train bases built to survive atomic war.

Sovok* — sarcastic abbreviation for “Soviet Union,” derived from “Sovetskiy Soyuz.” The word also means “dustpan,” carrying a double connotation of trashiness and backwardness.
