On the final approach to Tver station, there were a

number of stabled electric locomotives. Probably the most interesting was this pair of VL10s dating from the 1960s. VL10-1722 is in its traditional Soviet-era green livery and looks every bit its age but for the removal of the red star from the nose. VL10-1851 looks slightly less dated in its revised RZD livery. These articulated locomotives were constructed at the Tbilisi locomotive works with a final batch at the Novocherkassk electric locomotive factory. Their class, NV, is named after the USSR's founding father, Vladimir Lenin.
