Kazlų Rūda 1917
A field post card of Koslowa Ruda railway station posted in 1917. Koslowa Ruda is the polish name for Kazlų Rūda. The wooden station building on the picture still stands nowdays. It was an important railway junction where track split to Marijampolė direction and Königsberg (the present Kaliningrad) direction. As you see where there is the cancellation, the sender adressed to the filed post station 141 which was probably stationed at Marijampolė at the time.
Acquired in 2006 in Berlin, Germany
