We would like to travel on the train #28 at 21.30 from Oktyabrsky station. Is it possible to book 3 1st class carriages on his train, so that we will be able to travel together? Can I do this by just booking 6 tickets, between the 5 of us? I would be grateful for your advice about this. Matt

I believe that even if you do buy 6 tickets=3 1st class compartments, if the 6th place (or bed should I say) is not occupied, it might be given to someone else. Kinda like if you buy an airplane ticket but don't show up, your seat might be given away.... But then again, I dont know for sure... and any problem can be solved in Russia with the help of our little friend - the mighty ruble.
