On Tovarnaya line

The station was built for delivering cargo from tram stations on Flugov Lane (now Kantemirovsky street) to Sestroretsk, a municipality in Saint Petersburg. The station was constructed as a branch of the Primorsky Rail Terminal to Flugov Post line in May, 1904 by engineer Pyotr Alexandrovich Avenarius.

Сatastrophic flooding on 23 September 1924 closed the Primorsky Rail Terminal. Another branch to the Finlyandsky Rail Terminal was constructed in 1925 and 1927. By 1926, the line to Sestroretsk had been laid through Lanskaya station. In 1929, the line was reconstructed. The station Flyugov post was no longer required and was dismantled.

Flyugov Post was also the name of a station on the line between Finlyandsky Rail Terminal and Lanskaya, constructed in 1925 and taken out of service in 1934.
