Founded in 1919, as ZhelDor (abbr. -Rail road), soon after joining the Soviet Lokomotiv sports society it changed its name twice, to Lokomotiv in 1936 and Lokomotiv Yuga in 1940. The team played its home games at its own stadium.

Their best record of competition was the 17th place in the 1938 Soviet Top League. Also, the club was multiple winner of the Kyiv championships. In 1947 the team was disbanded, by transferring team players to the Lokomotiv Moscow club.

The club is now known for good training of young talent and selling them to domestic and European clubs. The most successful players among them are Andriy Yarmolenko and Oleksandr Yakovenko, who played for Belgian side Anderlecht. The club participated in the Second League.
