The starting point of the Ilek narrow-gauge railway was the village of Chus, located near the right bank of the Kama River. The starting point of the Perervinskaya narrow-gauge railway was the village of Kurya (on topographic maps it is most often indicated as Kama), located near the right bank of the Kama River, about 50 kilometers north of Chus. For a long time, narrow-gauge railways operated as a single network.

According to information from P. Kashin, the first section of the narrow gauge railway near the village of Kurya (Kamsky) was built in 1949. narrow gauge Railway belonged to the Perervinsky timber industry enterprise. Initially, it bore the official name "Skachkovskaya narrow-gauge railway", which came from the village of Skachok, neighboring Kurya. In 1960, another name was given - the Perervinskaya narrow-gauge railway.

The Ilek narrow-gauge railway (the starting point is the village of Chus) was founded in a close period of time. The owner of this narrow-gauge railway was the Kaisky timber industry enterprise.

Around 1960, the Ilekskaya and Perervinskaya narrow-gauge railways were connected. It became possible to travel by rail from Chus to Kurya, which improved living conditions in the remote village of Kurya, which did not have a road connection (there was a road in Chus at that time). A passenger train ran regularly on the route Chus - Kurya.

On the Perervinskaya narrow-gauge railway, there was a forest settlement Zhekan (evicted in 1975) and a significant number of shift forest camps, in which "lifters" lived - purveyors of resin (pine resin). Harvesting resin, along with logging, was widespread in this area.

According to P. Kashin, approximately in 1975, the Ilek narrow-gauge railway, which runs from the village of Chus in an easterly direction, was dismantled. Since that time, only the Perervinskaya narrow-gauge railway operated (from the village of Kurya to the south). The length of the highway was 22 kilometers, the rest was dismantled.

In the 1980s, the lumber station in Kurya was gradually transferred to truck haulage. After 1985, the regular removal of timber by narrow-gauge railway was discontinued, since that time it has been carried out only during the thaw period, when the movement of timber trucks became problematic. In 1990, the last section of the narrow gauge railway was dismantled. One of the diesel locomotives TU6A was transported to the Khristoforovskaya narrow-gauge railway.

In August 2007, railway researchers P. Kashin and S. Kostygov visited Chus and Kurya. According to information from P. Kashin, the cab of the MD54-4 motor locomotive, lying on the banks of the Kama, was preserved in Kurya. In Chus, no rolling stock of the narrow-gauge railway has been preserved.

The Ozhmegovskaya narrow-gauge railway was a timber-carrying, “floating” one, owned by the Kaisky timber industry enterprise. According to reports former Ministry timber industry, the first section of the narrow gauge railway was opened in 1952.

The length of the lines of the narrow gauge railway at the peak of its development was at least 70 kilometers. There were several shift camps on the lines of the narrow-gauge railway (Knyazevka, Dalniy Kym and others). The settlements were intended for the temporary residence of workers-throwers (producers of turpentine).

The narrow gauge railway was completely dismantled. Estimated liquidation period - 1970s.

This narrow-gauge railway was logging, was run by a correctional labor institution. The starting point of the narrow gauge railway, the village of Sosnovka I, was connected by a broad gauge branch to the Razdelnaya Gayno-Kai railway station.

The length of the narrow-gauge railway, according to topographic maps, was about 30 kilometers.

The narrow gauge railway was completely dismantled. Estimated liquidation period - the beginning of the 1990s. Later, the village of Sosnovka I was liquidated, the broad gauge branch leading to it was dismantled.

The Verkhnekamsk phosphorite mine has been the main enterprise of the Verkhnekamsky district of the Kirov region for a long time. The mine produces phosphorite ore by open pit mining.

According to information from railway researcher P. Kashin, a narrow-gauge railway at the Verkhnekamsk phosphorite mine was opened in 1915 - long before the broad gauge railway appeared in this area. Presumably, at that time it led to a pier on the banks of the Kama River, from which phosphorite ore was transported by water.

In the 1930s, a broad gauge railway line was opened from the Yar station to the phosphorite mine. Since that time, the products of the mine began to be transported by rail. Near the village of Rudnichny, a multi-level intersection of broad and narrow gauge railway lines was built.

The narrow-gauge railway reached its highest development in the early 1980s. At that time, its length was at least 40 kilometers.

In the 1980s, a decision was made to reconstruct the narrow gauge railway to a standard gauge of 1520 mm. According to information from P. Kashin, the work on reconstruction to broad gauge was completed in 1987. Almost all diesel locomotives operating on the narrow gauge railway were cut or transferred to other narrow gauge railways.

As of 2003 (information from P. Kashin), the Verkhnekamsky phosphorite mine practically did not work. On the broad gauge railway line owned by the mine, there was one narrow gauge diesel locomotive adapted for operation on broad gauge tracks - TU7-1336, and a significant number of broad gauge diesel locomotives (TGM4, TGM40 and others).

As of May 2008, the Verkhnekamsk phosphorite mine was almost non-operational. The broad gauge railway line belonging to the mine, leading to the quarries located to the south-west of the Rudnichny settlement, was not in operation, but was not dismantled.
