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, said that in the future the company plans to open sales even earlier - 90 days before departure.

"From December 10, 2017, ticket sales will be open for all long-distance trains and trailer cars plying in domestic traffic, 90 days before the date of their departure.

It will be possible to issue tickets 90 days in advance at railway ticket offices and on the official website of Russian Railways.

The increase in the depth of ticket sales, according to Russian Railways, 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 ticket reservation period.

On the second Sunday of December in Russian railways a new timetable is introduced. And this means that the time of departure of electric trains or trains that has become familiar over the year will change dramatically. These changes are the subject of my already traditional review.
This time, the passenger lines on the Trans-Siberian were seriously revised - the schedule has not changed so much for several years.
Alas, two trains from this Sunday go down in history. Canceled №12/11 Chelyabinsk - Chita and №43/44 Khabarovsk - Moscow. With the cessation of circulation last passengers nothing to lose: total passenger trains on the Siberian section of the transcontinental line is not violated - the train No. 99/100 Vladivostok - Moscow will follow the line No. 43/44 every day, in the old schedule, alternating with Khabarovsk every other day (thus, Vladivostok will be connected with the cities of the Urals and the capital by a daily "cheap" train). The cancellation of Chelyabinsk is much more sad - the year-round direct connection of the capital is lost Southern Urals from Ulan-Ude and Chita (in summer, this route can be traveled by train No. 269/270 Chita - Adler). However, carriages of direct communication Chelyabinsk - Vladivostok are introduced into compensation, running every other day. They follow the "castrated" route of train No. 12 to Omsk (a completely incomprehensible shortening of the route - to Novosibirsk would be more logical), where they are connected to "Russia". Still, I feel sorry for this semi-legendary train Chelyabinsk - Chita (and it sounds like it!), The route of which has existed since Soviet times - however, then it was a slow passenger train that stopped at every station. I talked with the conductor of the Chelyabinsk train when in September I went to Usolie-Sibirskoye for a family holiday - according to him, they wanted to transfer the route for service to Chita, but the Zabaikalsky branch of OAO FPC refused this offer. I hoped that the former line of the "eleventh" would be used by some kind of train like Chita - Novosibirsk, but, alas, now in the early evening it will be possible to leave the capital of Transbaikalia west only a day later by train No. 77 Neryungri - Novosibirsk, for which tickets are usually not available .

branded "Russia" №2/1 Moscow - Vladivostok will replenish not only Chelyabinsk trailer cars. The thread of train No. 20 Moscow - Beijing (via Zabaikalsk), used only once a week, was decided to be "slammed", and now the Beijing route will follow the same timetable with Rossiya. It will still be possible to leave the capital for Beijing on Saturdays, only on days that fall on an even number, you will go by direct "twenty", and on odd numbers - as part of "Russia" with re-trailing through Chita and then by a separate train №320 Chita - Beijing.

A train №8/7 Novosibirsk - Vladivostok"separated" from "Russia", now it follows another thread, slower. The travel time in the west direction has increased by 5 hours, and in the east direction - by almost 9! But many stops have been added ("Russia" does not stop even in many large settlements, for example, this year she was canceled parking in Taiga - outpost station of Tomsk), so I think this will have a positive effect on the population of the train. In the summer, No. 8/7 will alternate with seasonal No. 208/207 Novokuznetsk - Vladivostok. They pass Chita in the early morning - No. 7/207 departing at 23.14 Moscow time (+6 to the local, 5.14), No. 8/208 at 0.05 Moscow time (6.05 local). By the way, they recently began to print on tickets and the local time arrivals and departures, which is convenient for residents of the European part, who often find themselves in delicate situations while traveling in the east of the country.

Daily №69/70 Chita - Moscow now departs from Chita a little earlier: at 21.40 local (previously - at 20.04), and arrives - at 8.48 in the morning (previously - at 9.04).

№77 Neryungri - Novosibirsk moved two hours earlier: departure from Chita at 17.15 local (earlier - 19.20). In the opposite direction, it will follow the Trans-Baikal capital at a more convenient time - departure at 8.46 am (previously - at 4.27 am).

Train timetable №99/100 Vladivostok - Moscow practically did not change.

Branded №322/321 "Barguzin" Irkutsk - Zabaikalsk now in the period from January to April, as well as in November, it will follow only once a week, departing from Irkutsk on Fridays, from Zabaikalsk on Sundays. It's a pity, apparently, the flow of Russians to the PRC has completely dried up with the growth of the yuan, and students almost don't go because of the considerable rates of the FPC. Recently I happened to travel by this train on a business trip to Borzya - 70% of the passengers were Chinese tourists, for them Baikal is becoming more and more popular. In December-January and the summer season of transportation (May-October), a second "frequency" is added (I think the aviation term is appropriate here :) - departure from Irkutsk on Mondays, from Zabaikalsk on Wednesdays.

local trains No. 392/391 Chita - Blagoveshchensk, No. 602/601 Chita - Priargunsk with groups of cars to Zabaikalsk and Krasnokamensk are kept in circulation. The last one in the new schedule is accelerated when traveling from Chita - by 21 minutes, and to Chita - by as much as 51 minutes! Not bad for an overnight train.

VBS Chita - Anapa (summer), Chita - Manchuria (PRC) are also still in use.
