<p>I am making progress.</p>
<p>An article in the newspaper Trud of 29 September 1981 lists the
regions which did not return from DST to winter time in the autumn
of 1981.</p>
<p>It comes from this website<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://vladimir-l-s.livejournal.com/35885.html">https://vladimir-l-s.livejournal.com/35885.html</a></p>
<p>see image attached.</p>
<p>I had it OCRed and translated, and currently a colleague reading
Russian checks the translation.<br>
The relevant part seems to be:</p>
<p>
<blockquote type="cite">- So, there will be regions of the
country,<br>
which, as it were, will remain in "summer" time?<br>
<br>
- Yes. Firstly, these are those autonomous republics, krais,
'oblasts, Zatonomny okrugs' and raions, on the territory of
which Moscow time or close to it used to be used in violation of
the existing time zone boundaries. time worries everyone.<br>
<br>
Here is the list:<br>
autonomous republics - Dagestan, Kabardino-Balkaria, Kalmyk,
Komi, Mari, Mordovian, North Ossetian, Tatar, Chechen-Ingush,
Chuvash.<br>
<br>
Territories - Krasnodar and Stavroregions - Arkhangelsk,<br>
Vladimir, Vologda, Voronezh, Gorky, Ivanovo, Kostroma, Lipetsk,
Penza, Rostov, Ryazan, Tambov, Tyumen, Yaroslavl;<br>
<br>
as well as the Nenets and Evenk Autonomous<br>
Okrug and Khatangsky district of the Taimyr (Dolgano Nenets)
Autonomous Okrug.<br>
<br>
In accordance with the new time zone boundaries on October 1,
residents of Ust-May'sky, Ust-Aldansky and Oymyakonmogo, the
regions of Yakutia and the Diva region of the Uzbek SSR do not
change their clocks.<br>

Well, the 3 largest cities in the affected area would be Nizhny
Novgorod (Gorky at the time), Kazan and Rostov-on-Don. And which one
of them is larger changed with time.

To me it seems that an extra zone is needed, which starts with LMT util
1919, later follows Moscow since 1930, but deviates from it between 1
October 1981 until 1 April 1982.
I suggest to call this zone Europe/Yaroslavl, because Yaroslavl with a
population of 608'000 seems to be largest city in the deviating area.
