The October All-Russian political strike in 1905, initiated by workers in Moscow and St. Petersburg, met with active support in Krasnoyarsk. On October 13, a meeting of railway workshop workers, organized by the Krasnoyarsk committee of the RSDLP, decided to support the general strike. At the call of the railroad workers, workers of other enterprises, employees of institutions, and students began to join the strike. The strike covered the entire city: commercial establishments, pharmacies were closed, the telegraph and telephone did not work, the activity of the district court was paralyzed. The city was in the grip of the demonstration element. The news about the Krasnoyarsk Republic of 1905 became known to the world.
The street starts from the intersection with Respublika street and runs parallel to, on the left side of the street Maerchak, and on the right side borders with the river Kacha, ending at a busy crossroads, passing into a small street North-Yenisei.
The street is mainly built up of panel gas-fired five-story and nine-story improved buildings. In the mid-1980s, three Leningrad layout houses were built there (#18 "b", 20 "b", 20 "a"), and two brick houses of the new layout. In 1992 a 97-series panel house was commissioned, and a few years later a ten-story brick building with standard layouts was erected at number 26 "a. The oldest building on the street is a three-story Stalinka, built in 1959, #28. New houses on Zheleznodorozhnodorozhniki Street began to be built in 2006 near the Kacha River: these are monolithic brick buildings with large-size apartments.
