Today we learned that the Railways little cheating with ticket prices. Namely inflate the price of popular destinations without any good reason. When it is unpopular areas prices remain common. Let's say you want to go on April 9 in St. Petersburg, the cultural capital, to see how clean the snow and there ottrapeznichat shavermoy. Go to the Yandenks-schedule and see the ticket price:

Yeah, train "Athanasius Nikitin" 038A, Moscow - St. Petersburg, the coupe costs from 4154 rubles. That'S Perfect.





Now let's see how much is a ticket for the same train to Tver:

Better, 1304 rubles.



And from Tver to St. Petersburg on the same train?

Wow! Total 1754 rubles!

Total if you take two different tickets, the price of the trip will only have 3058 rubles instead of 4154! Saving quite substantial. And you do not even have to change into another car, just buy two tickets for the same place. I looked for other dates and everywhere the same situation. Price ticket direct on Peter expensive by 30-50% of the combined ticket. It acts on many fronts. For example, in Nizhny Novgorod, a direct ticket costs 2500, and if you take to Vladimir and then the bottom, it will be 1800.

It is strange that no one has still not made a convenient service to seek such "profitable" options. There is in fact a flight search service, which picked up inexpensive options with transfers. Why not do that for Railways? In general, as far as legally do so? Railways also have a monopoly, social responsibility, all things ... forever crying, that the cost of transporting passengers, poor, unfortunate ...
