Correction: these gullies are west of the Red October factory--not the Barrikady factory.

In the Modern Day Location map, what is pinpointed is the northern factory grounds of the Red October steel mill. But the area in the photo is in the housing west-northwest of the mill, where there are two gullies. Red October is just out of view to the upper left of the photo. The rail line is not there anymore. When the Red October mill was attacked in earnest part of the German attack was from this neighborhood; in this sector the advance was blocked by Soviet soldiers fighting from behind, on, and under the train.

Citação Famosa da 2ª GM
"You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word. It is victory. Victory at all costs. Victory in spite of all terrors. Victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival."Winston Churchill

Looking southeast at two gullies and rail line west of the Barrikady factory. Smoke and dust obscures the gully in the foreground; the explosion on the left is in or very near the northerly gully; the other gully is three blocks south (up and right in the picture), just this side of the wavy street.
