The only problem is that I stated in the visa form that I was arriving in Russia with an autobus. Now I'm changing my program and would like to arrive by train. Is it possible or is it going to create me problems at the border? I'm not even sure that this information is written on the passport! Thanks Teo

Avoid going through Belorussia as the visa is required for citizens of almost all countries. The safest route would be Poland - > Lithuania (Kaunas) -> Latvia (Riga) -> Russia, but check if you need visas to any of these countries on the consulates' websites.
