[#welcome][wow][wow]Thank god for the web - some things are easy to find out! <br /> <br />You need 41.25 hours from London to Moscow and 149.5 hours from Moscow to Vladivostok 149.5 hours! <br /> <br />This trip here is made with the real schedules and a start in London today, February 18, at 10.42 GMT. <br /> <br />I made a check at www.bahn.de - the web site of the DBAG - German Railroad (since 1993 not longer under federalcontrol) <br /> <br />First: Forget latitudes - The Highspeed lines are better and Berlin is the capitalcity of Germany but not the capitalcity of the German railroadsystem - in this Cologne of Frankfurt are better. <br /> <br />LETS ENTER THE TRAIN: <br /> <br /><font color="red"><i><b>Leaving London Waterloo Int. at 10:42 GMT with EST 9124 EUROSTAR HIGHSPEEDTRAIN <br />Arrives at Bruxelles-Midi EST at 14:05 GMT+1 <br />Bruxelles-Midi EST 18.02.04 ab 14:05 <br />Leaving Bruxelles-Midi at 14:28 GMT+1 with THA 9433 THALYS (the red/grey TGV HIGHSPEED trains to Belgium, Netherland and Germany) <br />Arrives at Cologne Hbf at 16:49 GMT+1 <br />Leaving Cologne Hbf at 18:18 with D249 nighttrain with sleeper train <br />Arrives at Brest Central (Border to Russia) at 15:01 GMT+2 (I´m not shure +2 or +3) tomorrow <br />Leaving Brest Central at 16:25 with D22AJ sleeper train - It´s possible that this is the train from cologne rerailed with new trucks for the wider russian railroads <br />Arrives at Moskva Belorusskaja at 06:57</b></i></font id="red"> <br /> <br />Then you will have some hours in moscow - not bad because you must go to another station. <br /> <br /><font color="red"><b>Leaving Moskva Iaroslavskaja at 16:36 with D 26NJ sleeper train <br />Arrives at Novosibirsk(RUS) at 15:19 in 4 days <br />Leaving Novosibirsk(RUS) at 15:40 with D 8IJ only with 1.class sleepingcars <br />Arrives at Vladivostok at 22:05 in 8 (yep I wrote EIGHT) days from now!</b></font id="red"> <br /> <br />When you see the schedules, there is also another train with two trainchanges - forgot this - twoandahalf hours after leaving Moskva Kurskaja at 16.55 withD 62VJ you will change into the train above at Wladimir Pass. <br /> <br />When you would leave London tomorrow or will stay in Moscow for one night you can use a direct train to Vladivostok that run every two days <br /> <br /><i><font color="red"><b>Leaving Moskva Iaroslavskaja at 17:06 with D2MJ sleeper train <br />Arrives at Vladivostok at 22:05 in 9 days - 8 days after leaving London </b></font id="red"></i> <br /> <br />By the way and as a note: Both trains from Moskva have a two week leaving schedule (Mo-Wed-Fri-Sun-Tue-Thu-Sat). Such a train, that start this week at Wednesday will make the next start at Wednesday in 14 days!
