Brief Intro: This has an extensive history of horrors and joys, very interesting route to travel on so you can certainly get a feel for things, however The Trans-Siberian is a vital link to the Russian Far East. Almost every station on Trans-Siberian Railway have food sellers, often by local vendors which sell local food such as fish (like Baikal omul), pirozhki, and potatoes. Beside food-stands there are also small kiosks. It is an excellence mix of old fashioned diesel and electric locomotives and old fashioned passenger wagons and a flavourfull of freight cars, nature. I can't pinpoint the exact locomotives present here but there diesel and electric, a variety. I know TEM2 is present which is a 6 axle unit that dose work here. What action will be here? Passenger tours, local services, freight service and plenty of sight seeing of course. The services that run down the line are most likely not exceeding 80kmph. Some places you will experience overgrown nature over the railway.
