Proceed to purchase a ticket

From 0:00 am on December 10, 2017, a new train schedule for 2017/18 comes into force on the railways of Russia, the CIS countries, Georgia, the Baltics and Europe.

“KI” in its issue dated October 17, 2017 spoke in detail about a number of innovations in this schedule concerning long-distance passenger and fast trains running through the Kursk station. Today we will supplement that information with a number of other interesting details.

If one train to St. Petersburg is accelerated, the second one will be slowed down

As already reported, the new schedule will significantly speed up the fast train No. 81/82 St. Petersburg - Belgorod passing through our city, and its schedule will change radically. But the second train that runs between these cities, No. 119/120, on the contrary, will slow down. This slowdown will occur due to the fact that this train in both directions will increase the duration of its stop in Orel, where the cars will be coupled/uncoupled. And a significant change in the schedule of train No. 119/120 will affect the Orel - Kursk - Belgorod section.

From the initial station St. Petersburg-Main train will leave, as now, at 0.11, have a stop in Orel 15.10 - 16.18 (instead of 14.58 - 15.13), stop in Kursk 18.08 - 18.38 (instead of 16.54 - 17.28) and arrive in Belgorod at 20.54 (instead of 19.44). Back from Belgorod the train will depart at 9.40 (instead of 10.51), stop in Kursk 12.02 - 12.29 (instead of 13.14 - 13.26), stop in Orel 14.20 - 15.15 (instead of 15.08 - 15.23) and arrive at the final station St. Petersburg-L Adoga, as now, at 7.30.

As part of train No. 119/120, direct Murmansk - Belgorod cars will travel through the Kursk station, which will interchange at the Bologoye station from/to train No. 15/16 Murmansk - Moscow. They will depart from Murmansk at 19.30 more than a day before the departure of train No. 119 from St. Petersburg, and will arrive back to Murmansk at 11.38 the next day after the arrival of train No. 120 in St. Petersburg.

We will go to the North Caucasus without visiting Ukraine

On November 15, JSC Russian Railways launched the first passenger trains on the new Zhuravka - Millerovo railway, bypassing Ukraine. This double-track electrified line began to be built after the deterioration of relations with Ukraine in 2014. This is the so-called railway bypass of Ukraine. The laying of tracks was completed in August, and traffic was planned to begin in the fall.

Then, fast trains No. 83/84 Moscow - Adler, No. 109/110 Moscow - Anapa and passenger train No. 360/359 Kaliningrad - Adler were not among the “firsts” running through Kursk in the direction of the North Caucasus. All of them, as can be seen from the ACS “Express-3” information displayed on the Russian Railways website about passenger train schedules, continue to follow the “old” section crossing the territory of the Lugansk region of Ukraine, and have a stop at the one located on it next to the Russian -Ukrainian border station Chertkovo in the Rostov region.

But from 0 o’clock on December 10, when the new train schedule for 2017-18 comes into force, all these trains will travel along the new railway, bypassing Ukraine. Then, after stopping at the Rossosh station in the Voronezh region, they will have a two-minute technical stop at the Kuteinikovo station, and the next tariff stop at the Millerovo station in the Rostov region. Also on the new line next summer, seasonal passenger trains No. 467/468 Smolensk - Adler and No. 563/564 Moscow - Anapa, passing through Kursk, as well as the next one through the located in Kursk region junction station Kastornaya passenger train No. 547/548 Moscow - Sukhumi.

By the way, despite the fact that the length of the route along the new line will be slightly longer than on the old one, train travel time will not only not increase, but, on the contrary, will decrease. Thus, KI previously reported a 25-minute reduction in travel time from Kursk to Adler on passenger train No. 360/359 Kaliningrad - Adler. The return train of the same numbering will also deliver passengers from Adler to our city a little faster. From there it will leave at 21.01 (instead of 20.44) and arrive in Kursk more than a day later at 4.00 (instead of 4.10). But the train will continue its further journey from our city, as now, at 4.44 and, as now, at 8.39 the next day it will deliver passengers to Kaliningrad.

And fast train No. 84 Adler - Moscow will leave Adler at 15.14 (instead of 15.04), travel through Kursk with a stop at 20.35 - 21.20 (instead of 20.30 - 21.30) and arrive at the Kursky station in Moscow, as now, at 5.25 am. And the return train No. 83 Moscow - Adler will depart from Moscow-Kurskaya at 20.03 (instead of 20.10), proceed through Kursk with a stop at 3.23 - 4.06 (instead of 3.16 - 4.12) and deliver passengers to the final station Adler a day later at 10.13 (instead of 10.18 ). 10 minutes earlier - at 10.37 instead of 10.47 - direct carriages running on train No. 84 Moscow - Kislovodsk will arrive at the final station.

As for another “southern” train - No. 109 Moscow - Anapa, it will depart from the Kursky station in Moscow at 23.10 (instead of 23.07), proceed through the Kursk station with a stop at 5.45 - 6.20 (instead of 5.50 - 6.33) and arrive in Anapa, as now, at 11.05. Returning from Anapa, train No. 110 will leave, as now, at 16.25, will proceed through the Kursk station more than a day later with a stop at 20.10 - 20.40 (instead of 20.05 - 20.31) and will arrive at the Kursky station in Moscow at 5.00 (instead of 4.10). Thus, the travel time both from Anapa to Kursk and from Kursk to Moscow for this train will increase.

We will go to Sukhumi differently

When the Compendium of interstate passenger trains to the traffic schedule for 2017/18 was approved, the seasonal passenger train No. 580/579 Belgorod - Voronezh - Sukhum, which ran through the territory of the Kursk region (in particular, through the junction stations Rzhava and Kastornaya) in the summer, was excluded from it last and this year. However, at the height of the 2018 holiday season, our region will not be left without direct communication with the Black Sea coast of Abkhazia. The new schedule retains the already mentioned seasonal passenger train No. 547/548 Moscow - Sukhum, which passes through the Kastornaya station, and residents of this regional center and nearby settlements will be able to use it. From the Kursky station in Moscow, the train will depart at 14.30, proceed through the Kastornaya-Novaya station with a stop at 2.26 - 2.31 and arrive in Sukhum more than a day and a half later at 19.22.

And the direct connection between Belgorod and Sukhum will be maintained with the help of direct carriages Belgorod - Sukhum, which will be delivered to the Stary Oskol station by a separate passenger train No. 690/689. From Belgorod it will depart at 22.50, proceed through the Rzhava station with a stop of 0.06 - 0.08 and arrive in Stary Oskol at 2.40, and from there at 4.30 these cars will continue their journey as part of train No. 547/548. And having arrived with it in Stary Oskol back from the capital of Abkhazia, these cars as part of train No. 689 will depart from there at 15.15, proceed through Rzhava with a stop at 17.43 - 17.45 and arrive in Belgorod at 19.00. So residents of Kursk, Solntsevo, Pristen, Oboyan will be able to go to Sukhum, as well as to the Black Sea coast of the Krasnodar Territory from Rzhava station by train No. 690.

Evening trains from Kursk to Orel and Ponyri will leave earlier

With the introduction of a new train schedule, changes will also affect the schedules of some electric trains and rail buses at the Kursk railway junction. As KI was informed at the Kursk station, these changes will affect, in particular, the following commuter trains: No. 6383 Kastornaya - Kursk will depart from Kastornaya at 13.16 (instead of 13.18) and arrive in Kursk at 16.14 (instead of 16.16); No. 6381 Kastornaya - Kursk will depart from Kastornaya at 3.28 (instead of 4.10) and arrive in Kursk at 7.25 (instead of 7.37); No. 6338 Kursk - Orel will depart from Kursk at 16.24 (instead of 16.04) and arrive in Orel at 19.34 (instead of 18.58); No. 6340 Kursk - Orel will depart from Kursk at 18.05 (instead of 18.40) and arrive in Orel at 21.11 (instead of 21.34); No. 6342 Kursk - Ponyri will depart from Kursk at 20.25 (instead of 20.40) and arrive in Ponyri at 21.47 (instead of 21.02); No. 6337 Orel - Kursk will depart from Orel at 16.34 (instead of 16.28) and arrive in Kursk at 19.31 (instead of 19.25); No. 6339 Orel - Kursk will depart from Orel at 18.00 (instead of 18.17) and arrive in Kursk at 20.58 (instead of 21.28); No. 6443 Kursk - Lgov will depart from Kursk at 17.35 (instead of 17.20) and arrive in Lgov at 19.34 (instead of 19.15); No. 6228 Belgorod - Kursk will depart from Belgorod, as now, at 16.13, travel non-stop to Prokhorovka station, as well as without stopping at platform 609 km, and arrive in Kursk at 19.24 (instead of 19.18).

Oleg Stolbetsov

MOSCOW, December 10 – RIA Novosti. Russian Railways will introduce a new schedule and launch train ticket sales from December 10 long distance in 90 days, the company said.

Russian Railways annually introduces a new train schedule on the second Sunday of December. “On December 10, 2017, at 00:00 Moscow time, a new traffic schedule and train formation plan for 2017/2018 will be put into effect throughout the Russian railway network. The schedule will be valid for a year,” the company said in a statement.

New schedule

In particular, the Russian Railways holding will speed up the movement of 413 trains, including 85 trains that will run faster by more than 30 minutes. The number of trains of the "Fast" and "High-Speed" categories will increase from 346 to 350 and will account for almost 63% of the total number.

There will also be more daily trains: 10 new express trains will be appointed (Moscow - Vyazma, Moscow - Penza and others). In total, the new schedule includes 54 pairs of “daytime” trains on 28 routes (in the 2016/2017 schedule there are 43 pairs of trains on 22 routes). The new schedule includes 19 new trains on the most popular routes (Stavropol - Adler, Moscow - Kovrov and others).

International passenger transportation will be carried out in direct and transit connections to 11 countries in Europe and Asia (Germany, France, Poland, Austria, the Czech Republic and others), as well as to 11 CIS and Baltic countries (Belarus, Ukraine, Moldova, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan , Uzbekistan, Azerbaijan, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia).

The total traffic of long-distance passenger trains will be 558 pairs of trains (one pair includes a round trip) in 405 different connections (in the schedule for 2016/2017 - 565 pairs in 411 messages). To ensure passenger transportation, 1,143 train sets will be formed (in 2016/2017 - 1,123 trains).

In the new schedule, Russian Railways will also add electric trains. The total size of suburban traffic increased by 45 pairs of trains and amounted to 3,660 pairs.

In addition, during the 2018 FIFA World Cup, an additional schedule for more than 500 trains will be developed to transport fans between the cities where matches will be held.

Tickets 90 days in advance

From December 10, Russian Railways will increase the depth of ticket sales for long-distance trains. Since December 2016, the company has increased the depth of ticket sales to 60 from 45 days before the departure date. The head of Russian Railways, Oleg Belozerov, reported that the company plans to open sales even earlier in the future - 90 days before departure.

“From December 10, 2017, the sale of tickets for all long-distance trains and trailer cars operating in domestic traffic will be open 90 days before their departure date. For example, on December 11, 2017, a passenger will be able to buy a ticket for a train departing on March 11, 2018 ", says the Russian Railways in a statement.

Tickets can be issued 90 days in advance at railway ticket offices and on the official website of Russian Railways.

Increasing the depth of ticket sales, Russian Railways believes, will improve the quality of passenger service and increase the availability of transportation. The company will continue to work on the possibility of further extending the reservation period for tickets.
