On railways, the reduction in ICP is accepted to denote track machine stations, which include special mobile units engaged in scheduled repairs of the railway track - including rail replacement, strengthening earth embankments, maintenance of turnouts, protection from flooding or snow drifts. Simplifying greatly, the ICP can be called "automated repair trains." But in fact, railway carriages for employees, workshop cars, pantry cars, and much more are also part of railway machine stations.
The very first track machine station was organized back in 1934, on the Moscow-Kursk Railway. Now more than 300 ICPs operate on Russian railways.
