Russian Railways train schedule for August. What time do trains depart in Russia? Is it possible to pay for a ticket by card? Is it safe

If you are traveling by train across Russia from Moscow to Vladivostok or traveling abroad, then the question arises about what train departure time is written on the ticket. It is worth understanding in order, because tickets are sold with different departure times.

As stated in Russia earlier

Time zones first appeared in the 19th century in Great Britain thanks to the railway. Due to the complexity of train schedules, a single time zone for the country was introduced in 1847. In Russia, something similar appeared after the revolution in 1919. Since then, the Russian Railways schedule in the USSR is indicated according to Moscow, and it remained the same in Russia. The exception is for international travel, in which case arrival times at a station in another country are written in local time.

The time on the ticket becomes local

Airlines have long begun to use uniform time for internal technical needs, but indicate local time on tickets. In 2018, Russian Railways decided to follow their example. From August 1, the information will change; departures and arrivals will begin to be indicated in local time, even on electronic boards in station buildings. Sales of tickets for flights using the new rules began on May 4. For trains departing before August 1, the old conditions apply.

To avoid confusion, you should look at the bottom line of the landing document; the old and new versions are different:

1. An example of the old format: “Departure and arrival times are Moscow.”
2. The new one indicates local time with clarification of the time zone, for example “21.00 (MSK +3)”

Indicate the route and date. In response, we will find information from Russian Railways about the availability of tickets and their cost. Choose the appropriate train and place. Pay for your ticket using one of the suggested methods. Payment information will be instantly transmitted to Russian Railways and your ticket will be issued.
