Hello We plan to travel on our bikes in Russia in August and then take the train from Moscow to Mongolia. Anybody know if is possible to take the bikes with us in the train? Is there any place for big luggage in the train? Do they charge extra amount for big luggage? Thanks

You should plan to travel by trains where there is a laggage carriage otherwise you'll have to send the bikes with a luggage train as bikes are not allowed to be taken in the carriage for passangers. Luggage carriages are not in every train though. Sometimes they are in every 2nd train and it's difficult to plan anything. And you should buy luggage tickets at a a train ticket office/ luggage office. If the bike is less than 20 kg then you'll pay for 20 kg (anyway you pay for 20 kg) and if more, than you'll pay according to their weight. And if bikes are collapsible (and not big) then you could probably take them into the carriage with you.
