Locomotive Er 772-17 is an original monument installed for the 125th anniversary of the Paliessie railway.

On July 23, 2007, ceremonies were held in Kalinkavičy in honor of the 125th anniversary of the passage of the Paliessie railway through Kalinkavičy. It was built in 1882–1907. The railway passed through Viĺnia, Hrodna, Viciebsk, Minsk and Mahilioŭ provinces.

A monument-locomotive was installed near the railway station. Its peculiarity is that it is not just a symbolic object, but a real locomotive produced at the «Škoda» factory. Since 1951, it worked for more than 30 years in freight traffic at the junction station.

Before perpetuating, the locomotive was restored.
