Oh my oh my oh my !!!

This is exciting news.
Just a few days after I complained about the miserable sick joke that used to be rzd.ru, they changed it completely.
First, there are now the schedules of the elektrichki.
In general, it looks better, and the date field offers a little calendar, just as any other site for flight, train or hotel reservation since about 1995.
For sure it's still far from perfect. For example there are still no trains to Kostroma. You have to choose "Kostroma (new)", otherwise it will search for trains to the old station, probably unused for half a century. To go around this, you need to type "Kostrom" to have a list of possible stations.
