It is in the Ippodromny section of Leninsky District of Nizhny Novgorod. The name Dvigatel’ Revolyutsii means “Engine of the Revolution” in Russian and comes from the Soviet-era name of the nearby diesel engine factory. The station retained its name although the factory was renamed RUMO in 1993.[4]
On 16 June 2014, the station sustained a flood after a nearby water main burst. Service was restored after several hours and there were no reported injuries.
