      • Locomotive 9P-742 was placed by the station in 2001 as a gift from the Ministry of Railways for Dubna's 45th anniversary.
      • The installation is called “Trans-Siberian No. 512”, although Dubna has nothing to do with the Trans-Siberian.
      • The double-headed eagle on the locomotive is a curiosity: 9P-series engines were built in the USSR in 1935–1957.
      • The station was built in the mid-1930s for the canal construction; its name comes from the “Bolshaya Volga” (Greater Volga) plan, whose first hub was the Ivankovo hydroscheme.
      • The old station was preserved and restored, and in 2004 a new two-storey station complex was built next to it.
