1. The Kolomna Heavy-Machtne-Tool-Factory (Kolomnenskiy Zavod Tyazhelogo
Stankostrclyeniya)fs located on the river Oka, in the south art of the town of
Kolomna 115: southeast of Moscow.. The factory is about 21 km west of-the
confluence-of the Moskva and.Oka rivers (see sketch).
Communications
2. A branch railway line runs to the factory from the Kolomna - Ozery line which is
itself a,branch-line of the Moscow - Ryazan railway.
Control
3. Until March .1953 the factory belonged to the Ministry of Machine Tool Building.
It now belongs to the Ministry of Machine Building and is directly subordinate
to the Chief Directorate of the Heavy Machine Tool Building, and Press Industry
( Glavnoye Upravleniye Promyshlennosti Tyazhelogo StanhosttmVei ..i ipressoy;
abb''ieviated forms G.lavtyazhstankopress).
4. The factory was. established after the war on the site of the Metal Working
.Factory i/n Engels which had been built' before the war. After the end.of the
war the'Engels factory began to produce metal-cutting machine tools of various
types,
5. In 1947 it was decided to reconstruct the factory, to erect large new factory
buildings, and to organize the largest heavy machine tool factory in the
USSR. For this purpose the Kolomstankostroyr Trust was established with offices
near Golutvino station (3 km from Kolomna station). Frayman.was appointed head
of this trust which sta~at the end of 1948sthe construction of factory
buildings and dwellings for the personnel. Construction is-still in progress.

The new factory buildings were built to the west of the old factory. By 19'3
six large buildings had.been`erected, the largest of them being the New
Assembly Shop (Novosborochnyy Tsekh) and the New Foundry Shop (Novoliteytyy:?
Teekh). Through the former runs a railway to facilitate the loading of the
enormous "unique" machine-tools which the factory has already begun to produce
and will-produce in large numbers in the future. The new factory buildings
have received the latest equipment of domestic and foreign.origin.
6. 1948 should be regarded as the year in which.the Ifolomna Machine-Tool
Factory was established.
