The station was closed in 2015 for repairs, maintenance and escalator shaft replacement. The escalators at Baumanskaya were the oldest on the network, having operated non-stop since 1944. They were the last H-series escalators in operation on the whole network.[1][2]
Specific configuration of central hall like garmon (Russian accordion) before the escalator, where some passengers try to short jump queue.
Most passengers prefer Baumanskaya to other station if they would get to the area which is at half-way between Baumanskaya and another station even if causes additional transfer or even best accessible by ground transport.

A cryptic inscription is on the wall of station. It is situated near the first car stop towards the Shchyolkovskaya station just under the last ventilation lattice. The inscription is deeply carved in marble on about Шаблон:Convert above the floor, is about Шаблон:Convert in length and Шаблон:Convert in height. It consists of two dates, divided by hyphen:
19 14/XI 46 – 19 15/XII 54
These dates translate to 14 November 1946 – 15 December 1954. The way of writing is very similar to the way dates are written on gravestones. The origin of that artifact is unknown.[3]
