D78 - Train

AUG27 - Day78 - Ekaterinburg - Km6964

Julia i Vika venen a recollir les claus a les 7 de la tarda, el meu tren a Novosibirsk surt a les 9 del vespre i arriba a la capital de Siberia 20 hores mes tard. Aquesta vegada m'he decidit pel tren 026 que va de Moscow a Novosibirsk i que es diu SIBIRYAK. Els trens de gran recorregut a Russia tenen nom propi, el numero indica la qualitat del tren (numeros baixos major qualitat) i tambe indica la direccio, parells pels que van direccio est i senars pels que tornen cap a l'oest, direccio Moscou. Aqui sota n'hi ha uns quants exemples:

Julia and Vika will come to the flat to pick up the keys at 7pm, my train leaves to Novossibirsk at 9pm and arrives to the capital of Siberia 20h later. It's raining today, I say bye to Julia and Vika and go to Uralskaya Train Station. This time I will take Sibiryak, train 026 from Moscow to Novosibirsk. Long distance trains have names in Russia. Even numbers are from Moscow eastwards, odd numbers go west. Let's see some examples below:
