Factory 38, the Kolomenskiy Parovozostroitel'niy Zavod (KPZ, Kolomensky Locomotive Works), at Kolomna, south of Moscow, began making T-60 light tanks in July 1941 but was evacuated to Kirov, north of Moscow, in the autumn of that year. Men and machines evacuated from Factory 37 went to Sverdlovs’k and also to Kirov. At Kirov the two groups were combined to form a new Factory 38 ‘Kuibyshev’. When production resumed at Kirov, it became one of the two major sources of the T-60, along with the GAZ factory. (Source: WS Dunn: Stalin’s Keys to Victory)
