The Russian Railways have finally created something really special and nice: a virtual tour of "Rossiya" Trans-Siberian train (#1/2), which departs from Moscow and goes all the way to Vladivostok. It's possible to see the views from the window, "talk" to the passengers, take a look at the compartments, the restaurant, toilets, and learn a lot of interesting things. The texts are in Russian, but it's pretty easy to navigate through, just click through from the Day 1 to Day 6 in the interface above.

You can view the virtual tour here.

So many things made me laugh....and I think as a promotional tool, it is very effective!

Amazing - made me wish I could go to the station and board tonight. But I have to say it's odd that even RZhD thinks SV (the fancier cars with two berths per cabin instead of four) is only for foreigners. Come on RZhD, Russians are rich enough to afford SV, too! And does anyone else think it's a bit funny that they wanted the (presumably fictional) photog for National Geographic (an American magazine) to be a Brit and not an American?
