[As follows from the documents, the hereditary nobleman Vladimir Wentzel was born on March 30, 1867. The permanent place of residence in the passport book is the village of Obrino, Tikhvin district, Novgorod province. In 1892, he graduated from the Institute of railway engineers in Saint Petersburg. He was married "for the first time to the daughter of the state Councilor, railway engineer Zhukov – the maiden Elizabeth Viktorovna". The document includes the children of Vladimir Eduardovich Ventzel: Viktor, Elizabeth and Tatiana. As the newspaper Oktyabrskaya Magistral wrote, Viktor's godfather was Emperor Nicholas II.

Immediately after graduating from the Institute of railway engineers, Wentzel worked on the construction of the West Siberian road (Zlatoust – Chelyabinsk line), laying the first railway lines of the Western gate of the TRANS-Siberian railway. Then there was the Moscow-Vindavo-Rybinsk and St. Petersburg-Vologda Railways, then the reconstruction of the mountain sections between Achinsk and Irkutsk.

The private Moscow-Vindavo-Rybinsk railway was built in 1870-1904 in the North-West of Russia. For its construction, the Rybinsk-Bologovskaya railway Society was formed in 1869, which was renamed the Rybinsk railway society in 1895, and the Moscow-Vindavo – Rybinsk road In 1897. The company also funded the construction of the Vindavsky (Riga) railway station in Moscow. In September 1918, the railway was nationalized and transferred to the People's Commissariat of Railways.

In 1888-1902, a whole galaxy of young talented railway engineers worked on the Ufa-Zlatoust and Samara-Zlatoust roads (now the Kuibyshev highway): Konstantin Mikhailovsky, Nikolai Garin-Mikhailovsky, Nikolai Tikhomirov and Viktor Zhukov, who later became outstanding builders of the TRANS-Siberian railway. Viktor Zhukov, the adoptive father of Vladimir Ventzel's wife, served as an assistant to Konstantin Mikhailovsky, the head of construction of the Ufa – Zlatoust and Zlatoust – Chelyabinsk Railways.]
