Buying
Train Tickets: buy your train tickets at least one day beforehand,
be prepared to wait in a line for at least 1 hour. For popular routes,
like Moscow - St. Petersburg, Trans-Siberian it's better to buy
the tickets as early as possible
(the earliest is 45 days beforehand).
Ticket Prices: train ticket prices in Russia vary, depending
on where you buy them. Russian railway ministry sells ticket trains
through authorized agents, and it is even possible that two different
ticket sales offices at one railway station will have different
prices. On this page we give average train ticket prices, it is
only possible to get the exact quote when buying a ticket.
Train Schedules: train timetables and prices change very
often in Russia and although we're trying hard to keep this page
as up-to-date as possible, it may be slightly outdated sometimes.
You can request exact train schedules and quotes at
Train Tickets Online Reservation page and, if you want,
reserve or buy your ticket..
