Trotsky’s telegram to Frunze, Commander of the Turkestan Front, gave directives for the deployment of the 4th Army, which had been converted into a labour army for the construction of the Alesandrov-Gai-Emba railway line and the reconstruction of the Krasny Kut-Alesandrov-Gai line to a broad gauge.

On January 19, Frunze signed an order for the construction of the Emba railway line by the 4th Army. __ALESANDROV_COMMENT__ Alexandrov in 1975 (2nd printing).

I request Comrade Frunze, in accordance with Trotsky’s directives, to develop revolutionary energy for maximum acceleration of the construction of the railway and dispatch of oil. Confirm receipt.
