history

The place was built in the 1950s around a marshalling yard on the recently opened railway line Komsomolsk am Amur  - Sovetskaya Gawan and the industrial companies located there. It was initially a district of the city of Sovetskaya Gawan, 10 km south, but was spun off as an independent urban-type settlement in 1959 and received the name Oktyabrski from Russian oktyabr for October , with reference to the October Revolution . The settlement subsequently belonged to the oblast-subordinate city of Sovetskaya Gawan, later to the Sovetsko-Gawanski rajon , until it was handed over to the newly created Waninski rajon in 1974 shortly after its establishment.
