Dvigatel' Revolyutsii (Russian: Двигатель Революции) is a station on the Avtozavodskaya line of the Nizhny Novgorod Metro.[1] It opened on 20 November 1985 as one of the six original stations of the Metro.[2][3]

It is in the Ippodromny section of Leninsky District of Nizhny Novgorod. The name Dvigatel’ Revolyutsii means “Engine of the Revolution” in Russian and comes from the Soviet-era name of the nearby diesel engine factory. The station retained its name although the factory was renamed RUMO in 1993.[4]

Incidents[]

On 16 June 2014, the station sustained a flood after a nearby water main burst. Service was restored after several hours and there were no reported injuries.
