• GENERAL STAFF
Commander--- Sergey Klimets, Lt.Gen. Ex-CINC---KOGAT'KO, Grigoriy Iosifovich, Col-Gen Appointed Feb 1992(30 Mar 92 in Tyl Vooruzennykh Sil, 3/92 p 55; Moskovskiy Komsomolets, 20 Nov 03).
Telephone: 262-50-19 (reception), 262-72-79 (press service) (RIA Novosti, 27 Jun 02).

Defense Minister S. Ivanov stated that the RR Troops would be organized as an independent type of troops (Kommersant, 5 Feb 04 p 4).
[President Putin publicly agreed to S. Ivanov proposal to resubordinate RR Troops to RF Ministry of Defense (Moskovskiy Komsomolets, 20 Nov 03).]
[The previous structure derived from RF Presidential Edict No. 821 of 1 August 1997.]
[In 1995 established as a separate Federal Service by Presidential Decree during 1995. (Krasnaya Zvezda 5 Oct 95 p 2).]
[The RR Troops were officially subordinated to the Ministry of Architecture, Construction and Housing and Utilities by Decree of the Russian President of 18 April 1992. However, a 1994 article stated that the Railroad Troops were "operating as an independent institution under the Ministry of Railways of Russia." (Krasnaya Zvezda 30 Nov 94 p 1).]
[“The troops' mission has been broadened somewhat. Under the laws, they are henceforth to be used not only to provide technical cover, rebuild and secure railroads in order to support combat and mobilization operations, build new railroads in peacetime and wartime, and enhance the survivability and carrying capacity of existing railways, but also rebuild railroads destroyed as a result of natural disasters and accidents. Another new element is to perform missions under international treaties.
[“… Units and formations of the Railroad Troops now have the status of legal entities, which enables them to independently enter into contracts and agreements, thereby participating, in effect, in the Russian market for railroad construction and modernization alongside the Russian Federation Ministry of Railroads, the Transport Construction Corporation, and other construction companies. For the Railroad Troops, however, participation in the construction of facilities on a commercial basis allows them not only to use such activities to provide specialized training to their personnel, but also to build and modernize railways in strategically and operationally important sectors at their customers' expense.”(Krasnaya Zvezda 5 Oct 95 p 2).]
[“the Railroad Troops include four railway corps, 28 separate railway brigades as well as several military units, scientific and research entities. (ITAR-TASS, 2 May 99).]
