As far as I can tell, nobody had published this story on the Internet in English. However, it exists on several sites in Russian. Russian Wikipedia, however, points out that the station was named in 1900, well before the time when Mark Aiserman could be taking that train (after 1946). http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%90%D0%B9%D0%B7%D0%B5%D1%80%D0%BC%D0%B0%D0%BD,_%D0%9C%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%BA_%D0%90%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%BD%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%B8%D1%87 Again, according to Wikipedia, the station Mark http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9C%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%BA_%28%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B0%D0%BD%D1%86%D0%B8%D1%8F%29 was named so after German industrialist Mark Hugo who participated in building that railway. .. but I think the story is nice and funny nevertheless.
