Chelyabinsk is good because you can get to the capital from it not only by plane, but also by train. The second option is slower, but sometimes cheaper and suitable for those who do not like to fly and who like the romance of the railway itself. Along the way, you will be able to see a lot outside the windows of the train. The cheapest option to get to the capital is the train 391 Chelyabinsk-Moscow.

Convenient travel time

The train leaves Chelyabinsk at 20:20. This option will seem convenient for both guests of the city and its residents. For example, in the summer you can walk until 7 pm, and then rush to the station, as boarding starts 30-40 minutes before departure.

The train travels slowly to the capital: 41 hours. This is 8 hours more than the branded train. However, it is suitable not only for a trip to Moscow, for example, you can take a ticket to Ufa and arrive there the next day at 06:20. If the trip is planned to the station after Ufa, then it turns out to be a convenient option with a stop in the capital of Bashkiria for 1.5 hours, during which time you can stretch your legs after sleep and wander around the station.

This train is convenient for those who need to get to Ulyanovsk (arrival in the evening) and those whowho is going to Ryazan, where the stop is at 7:30 am.

Affordable ticket prices

Train 391 is interesting because it runs one of the longest sitting cars in the country. You can get from Chelyabinsk to Moscow for only 1,800 rubles in a seated carriage. This is an option for lovers of extreme sports, as you will need to sleep sitting up for two nights. But it takes a day to get to Ulyanovsk and a ticket costs 1,200 rubles (cheaper than a bus), it may suit someone, especially if the trip is urgent.

In a reserved seat to Moscow, the cheapest ticket will cost from 3,300 rubles, which is 25% cheaper than the branded train.

To Ufa, a ticket for a seated car will cost 670 rubles, which roughly corresponds to a fare of 1.5 rubles per kilometer. The reserved seat is almost twice as expensive, including because of the bed, and the coupe costs around 5,000 rubles.

Features of the composition

Depending on the season, the number of cars on train 391 may vary, but the layout is approximately as follows:

• Seven compartment cars. Two of them are of the cheapest type, without dry closets and air conditioners. One of them allows pets.
• Three reserved seat cars. All with dry closets and air conditioners. Animals are not allowed.
• One sit-down car, without dry closet and air conditioning. It also does not allow pets.

Consequently, in a compartment and a reserved seat, the trip will be comfortable, without long sanitary zones and stuffiness in the summer. You can pour tea in the titanium, and buy various food and souvenirs from the conductor.
