Steam Locomotive Cuckoo
The unique steam locomotive K-15776 Cuckoo ("Zozulya"), which is permanently parked at the "Boiarka" railway station, is considered a symbol of the city.
This is one of the monuments to the boyar narrow-gauge railway, thanks to which Kyiv was saved from freezing in the cold winter of 1921-1922. Such steam locomotives transported firewood harvested in nearby forests.
The "Cuckoo" steam locomotive in Boyarka is considered the only representative of this series that has survived in Ukraine.
