Moreover, in my opinion you should reconsider mixing two different matters - wide issue of history of Pioneer movement in USSR with children's railway topic, which is only minor and meaningless example of "activities" of this harmful organization. As we see above, in the long run it can lead some people to quite inventive conclusions.

"After communism got a firm hold over the country"? Really ...are you sure socialism wasn't welcomed and embraced by the people? <br /><br />"They were established all across the Russian Union and Eastern Europe where communism had its presence." Maybe ...collective concern and democratic decision making were the reasons for these results?
