"Vznik seradovacího nádraží v Malomericích se datuje rokem 1938-39. Pri stavbe 16. kvetna 1941 bylo nalezeno nejvetší moravské keltské pohrebište, datované do 4. - 3. století pr.n.l. Byly zde zastoupeny ruzné typy hrobu, dokládající znacné sociální rozvrstvení keltské spolecnosti.

Umístení nádraží bylo vybráno s ohledem na vojenské zájmy tak, aby se dalo dobre bránit z okolních svahu. Z dopravního hlediska je tato poloha nevýhodná, nebot všechny trate se vetví až na jihu Brna. Stavba byla prerušena v roce 1942 a poté dokoncena v letech 1949 - 1953"

EN:
"The origin of shunting station in Malomerice is dated to years 1938-39. The largest Moravian Celtic burial-place from 4.-3. century B.C. was found during the construction of this station on May 16, 1941. There are different types of graves illustrating social layering of Celtic society.

The location of shunting station has been chosen with the aspect of military interests in such way that army could defend station from higher positions on nearby slopes. This location is disadvantageous from the transportation aspect because all railways ramify on the opposite southern side of Brno. The construction was suspended in 1942 and then finished between 1949 and 1953."
