History
In 1898 Orenburg Cossacks from the first Host district founded the Grodekovo (Гроде́ково) railway station, named after Nikolay Ivanovich Grodekov, Governor General of Priamurye (in office: 1898–1902). The settlement received its present name, "Pogranichny" – which means "border (town)" – in 1958.[7]
Cross-border rail traffic
The railway station in Pogranichny (still called Grodekovo for railway purposes) is the first one east of the Sino-Russian border on the Harbin–Ussuriysk (for Vladivostok) branch of the former Chinese Eastern Railway, the "Trans Manchurian Line". There are currently (December 2013) no through passenger trains between Harbin and Ussuriysk; however, two local trains daily in each direction connect Suifenhe (the last Chinese station on the western side of the border) to Pogranichny. The 27-km journey takes around 1 hour and 25 minutes.[8]
Climate
Pogranichny has a humid continental climate (Köppen climate classification Dwb), with very cold and dry winters and very warm and wet summers.
