Locomotive 9P arrived at the DMZ as a piece of rusty scrap metal (photo). By the efforts of the plant's employees, it was restored (the cabin and missing elements were added), painted and put on a pedestal.
The locomotive was restored almost from a pile of scrap metal by employees of the railway station (railway workshop) of the Donetsk Metallurgical Plant. Green spaces have been planted near the locomotive, benches have been installed - a small park has been created.
