Soviet soldiers try to defend Leningrad - March 1942.

Some 100,000 civilians died of starvation and disease during the siege as most of the supply lines to the city were cut by German troops.

In a bid to help ease the shortages Soviet engineers ingeniously laid a light railway across the frozen surface of Lake Lagoda, the second largest lake in Russia after Lake Baikal.
