And there, where the village Pukhovo - ravines and the station has nowhere to put. And according to the distance from Liski it was convenient to make a station there (that from Liski, and that from Evdakovo - the same). Then, at the station, people began to settle, and the whole village began to be called by the name of Kovalev. Kovalev, this is probably also a migrant from Ostrogozhsky district. The land had to be inhabited. When they built the railway, they hired people. On the garbah they carried the sand, made a mound, sawn the sleepers. There was so much forest. That is why the beam on Rossosh, which began 2-3 km from the village of Puhovo, was called Karatechnik, since there were many trees called “karachnik” (elm). He has solid wood like oak.
