Name

Likhobory station shares its name with a station on the Little Ring railway line and Verkhniye Likhobory, a station on the Lyublinsko-Dmitrovskaya Line. The name is derived from an area north of Moscow along the Likhoborka River. The station's name during construction was Nikolaevskaya, but was changed by the city prior to the opening of the line.[1]
