High-speed train

It is planned to launch a new high-speed train made in Germany Siemens Velaro RUS «Sapsan". To date, the Russian Railways has already delivered 4 trains Velaro, and as many more are expected in the near future.

One of the compounds is already being tested on the line. Last week, as part of the beginning of 5000 the first run I was able to ride it on the route Moscow - St. Petersburg - Moscow. From a trip to Nizhny Novgorod, I refused for personal reasons.

The cars have a two-class layout: head - business class, intermediate - tourist class. Differences at a minimum: business class black upholstery, increased space for legs and between the seats has a socket for recharging a laptop or mobile phone.
