some point in 2011, so please check!
Note A: 'Rossiya'. 'Firmeny' quality train. Runs every second day, leaving Moscow on odd-number dates (1st,
3rd, 5th etc.), except 31st of the month. Runs from Vladivostok on even-numbered dates from the 8th of each
month onwards, plus the 2nd, 4th, 6th of March, May, July, October, December, and the 1st, 3rd, 5th of other
months. 2-berth spalny vagon, 4-berth kupé, platskartny berths & restaurant car.
Note B: Moscow-Beijing express via the Trans-Mongolian route. Leaves Moscow every Tuesday eastbound,

Note C: Runs from Moscow on Wednesdays, also Thursdays in summer. Runs from Ulan Bator Tuesdays, also
Fridays in summer. 2-berth & 4-berth sleepers & restaurant car. This train has Russian and Mongolian

Note D: 'Vostok' Moscow-Beijing express via the Trans-Manchurian route. Leaves Moscow every Saturday.

Note E: 'Baikal'. 'Firmeny' quality train. Runs from St Petersburg on odd-number dates (1st, 3rd, 5th etc., but
not the 31st). Runs from Irkutsk on odd dates (1st, 3rd, 5th etc., but not the 31st). 2-berth & 4-berth sleepers,
platskartny sleepers & restaurant car. The 'Baikal' used to run from Moscow, it was diverted to start from St
Petersburg as of June 2010.
Note F: This is a slower, cheaper, lower-quality alternative to the top-quality 'Rossiya' and 'Baikal' for journeys
within Russia. 2-berth spalny vagon, 4-berth kupé and platskartny. Eastbound, train number is 340 on some

Note G: Runs daily. 4-berth kupé and platskartny sleepers from Irkutsk to Ulan Bator. No 2-berth.
Note H: Runs from Ulan Bator to Beijing on Thursdays all year round. Westbound, runs from Beijing to Ulan
Bator on Tuesdays, also Mondays from late June to late October 2011. Please double-check days of running
when you book as Chinese Railways can't make up their mind what day(s) to run it and it has changed
seasonally over the last few years. Soft class 2-berth & 4-berth sleepers and hard class 4-berth sleepers.
Trains 3/4, 5/6 & 19/20 between Moscow, Ulan Bator & Beijing are intended for passengers making
international journeys (for example, Moscow to Beijing, Irkutsk to Beijing or Moscow to Ulan Bator). If you
want to stop off at Ekaterinberg or Irkutsk (for example), you would normally take a Russian internal train (for
example, the 'Rossiya') between Moscow, Ekaterinberg & Irkutsk.
