12.03.2021

Moscow / Madrid, 17 Dec - RIA Novosti / Prime. "Federal Passenger Company" (FPK, "Daughter" of Russian Railways for the transport of passengers in the distant following) on \u200b\u200bSaturday, December 17, sends a new train to Berlin on the first flight to Berlin, which will run under the Strizh brand (Strizh), Russian Railways reported .

For the first time, the passenger train is formed from wagons equipped with a system of automatic change of wheel width. This will reduce the time for the transition from the rut of the Russian standard of 1520 millimeters to the European 1435 millimeters at Art. Brest (Belarus).

The train "Streach" will take about 20 minutes to pass through a specially equipped transferable device, while currently changing the wheeled steam takes about 2 hours. Thus, the distance from Moscow to Berlin the train will overcome in 20 hours 14 minutes against 24 hours 49 minutes now. From Berlin to Moscow, the road will take 20 hours 35 minutes instead of 25 hours 56 minutes.

The manufacturer of rolling stock is the Spanish Patente Talgo. "The selected name" Streach "fully corresponds to the characteristics of the train - it is fast and prompt," RIA Novosti said in Talgo. The train is able to develop speed up to 200 km per hour.

"Strey" flew

The train "Strege" will go on the first flight to Berlin on Saturday from the Moscow Kursk Station at 13.05 Moscow time. From Berlin, the first flight will go on December 18th.

Next, the "Strege" train will run twice a week, going from the Moscow Kursk Station on Saturdays and Sundays at 13.05 Moscow time and arriving at the Berlin Island station in the next day (local time).

From Berlin (Berlin Island Station), the train will be sent on Sundays and Mondays at 18.50 (local time) and arrive at the Moscow Kursk Station at 17.25 Moscow time.

Train on the route will make stops at Stations Smolensk, Orsha, Minsk, Brest, Terespol, Warsaw, Poznan, Supin, Frankfurt (Oder).

Prices for tickets

Trains "Streach" consists of 20 cars of different classes with a total capacity of 216 seats.

The FPK was announced on the first flight discounts from 20 to 40%. According to the company, for example, an adult ticket for this flight, depending on the class costs from 148.6 to 495.5 euros. The price of the same ticket for "Strezhe" from December 18 to January 13 will be from 169.5 to 667.5 euros, respectively, and from January 14 to March 28, 2017 - from 169.5 to 452.5 euros, respectively.

"The fare is specified in one direction per passenger in euros. When buying a ticket, its cost is recalculated at the current course and is paid in rubles. Actual price can be viewed when buying tickets on our website or in international cash desks. All discounts are provided for the cost of travel", - Russian Railways reported.

The new train has significantly increased the comfort and safety of passengers on the way, considers the head of the Ministry of Transport Maxim Sokolov. Its main advantage is that it automatically adapts to the European King. This reduces the path from Moscow to Berlin for almost five hours, the minister noted. In the following way, the composition makes stops at Stations Smolensk (Russia), Orsha (Belarus), Minsk (Belarus), Brest (Belarus), Terespol (Poland), Warsaw (Poland), Poznan (Poland), Supin (Poland), Frankfurt Oder (Germany). All countries through which the train passes, participated in the certification of the composition, clarified the minister.

The transition to the European King composition will be carried out in Belarus, clarified the head of Russian Railways Oleg Belozerov. "String" will take about 20 minutes to pass through a specially equipped transferable device from one track to another, whereas currently changing the wheeled steam takes about 2 hours.

Already, passenger international transportations increased by more than 9 percent compared to last year. Message from Germany increased by 35 percent. The launch of this train will create additional opportunities for passengers, believes Belozerov.

The train "Streach" will run 2 times a week, going from the Moscow Kursk station on Saturdays and Sundays at 13 o'clock 05 minutes and arriving at Berlin Island station at 07 hours 19 minutes the next morning. From Berlin (Station Ostbroan), the train will be sent on Sundays and Mondays at 18 o'clock 50 minutes and arrive at the Moscow Kursk Station at 17 hours 25 minutes, the next day.

20 hours will need travelers to drive from Moscow to Berlin on the new corporate train "Strezh"

The train is 20 cars. Of these, five cars with a quadruple coupe, four cars with double, two cars with places for first-class seats (20 seats in each car). They are designed mainly on those who travel not from Moscow to Berlin, but, for example, from one European city to another. EU residents have already fallen in love with Russian trains, experts say. They hope that this composition will find their fans.

The train has another car bar and a restaurant car. Among additional services Wi-Fi access to the multimedia portal with the ability to access the Internet. On the portal you can watch the schedule, the menu of the restaurant and the news for passengers. Those who bought tickets to the first class sedentary car will be issued to view the multimedia content.

From Sakhalin to Japan

The Ministry of Transport is being worked out by the issue of creating a railway communication between Sakhalin (Russia) and Japan.

There are two options: Railway bridge or tunnel for the bottom of the Laperz Strait, which connects the Japanese and Okhotsk Sea and runs between the northern tip of Hokkaido Island (Japan) and the southern tip of Sakhalin Island Cape Krölon (Russia). However, there are no technical solutions yet, noted in a conversation with journalists from the deputy head of the Ministry of Transport Alexey Tsydenov.

At first, Sakhalin needs to be combined with the main part of Russia, and such a project has already been discussed in 2013, recalled Tsydenov. There were also two options: the bridge and the tunnel. The approximate cost of the project is 400 billion rubles.

We will add that the most narrow place between the mainland and Sakhalin is the strait of a nevelish width of about 8 kilometers, a maximum depth of 24 meters.

Many do not understand why buy tickets for the train to Berlin and spend 20 hours on the road, when it is possible for the same money and about 2.5-3 hours to fly to the German capital by plane. I will try to explain.

1. December 17, Russian Railways launched a speed train on the route Moscow - Berlin. With the translation of the name, they were just - in Russia he "Strizh", abroad - Strizh. It looks like the same as the one that now goes to Nizhny Novgorod. But this is only at first glance.

2. Alas, it is impossible to be happy for the Russian manufacturer and say that the haircut is the brainchild of the Tver Carriage Factory or Ural locomotives. The train is adapted to the Russian climatic conditions of the Spanish Talgo 250 project, which is successfully used on the railways of Europe, and even in Kazakhstan. The more I studied the composition, the more I understood how much it does not look like our classic long-distance trains.

3. The first thing that rushes into the eyes - wagons are significantly shorter and lower. The length of one car is only 13 meters: two times less than our native Russian.

4. All equipment for the work of the composition is not hidden under the floor, as it usually happens, and in two technical cars. They are at the beginning and at the end of the train. The short body of lightweight structures manufactured mainly from aluminum alloys allow you to lower the center of gravity. There are no usual wheel carts. The entire composition of 20 cars accounts for 21 wheeled trolley, with independent rotation of the wheels on their own semi-axles. That is, every car is only 1 (one, Karl!) Wheel pair.

5. Wheel trolleys are located under the hubbles of the wagons. It turns out that on the one hand, the car relies on its wheel pair, and on the other - on the wheel pair of the next car. At the expense of all this, the wagons can pass complex sites and curves faster, and the impact on the path is very smaller than that of ordinary carts.

The tricky system is in charge of trolley in turning. This allows you to minimize the lateral loads on the wheels and reduce the wear of the river ridge.

6. To avoid land in the context of the Russian climate, the wheels are blown up with warm air (approximately 38 degrees).

7. During the reconstruction of the Moscow-Kiev depot, three separate ways were equipped specifically for the maintenance of the rifle. In the photo - a feeding device that allows you to repair wheels without disassembling carts.

This is the first train in Russia, equipped with a system of automatic change of wheel width. Especially for this train in Brest created a translation device. Thus, from the ruts of the Russian standard of 1520 millimeters to the European 1435 millimeters, Strezh will go in just 20 minutes. Previously, this procedure occupied about two hours.

8. By the way, there is a common opinion that when choosing a rut width in Russia played a role and a military aspect - an excellent track width difficult to the hypothetical enemy supply troops in case of invasion of Russia.

In fact, most likely did not think about anything seriously, but simply chose one of the models that existed in those years, which was then popular in the United States. Military significance of the track difference today is not very large - in the middle of the 20th century, railway troops could calmly alter from 10 to 30 kilometers of the road a day. The width of the rut did not have much importance and because the retreating troops from the time of the first world often destroyed the path behind them. For the supply of the upcoming troops on the territory of the enemy, special temporary narrow-soles were often built.

The photo shows that the stereos wagons below our two-sighted EP20 electric locomotive almost a third. The height of the platform for string is two times less than standard. The first and last car trains are technical - there are no passengers in them, only equipment.

9. In technical cars there are all systems that provide vital activity, safety and fire extinguishing, the connection of this train and so on. Here are a diesel generator, an air compressor, cleaning and heating systems. Two generators work together, but in the event of a breakdown, even one can supply the entire train with electricity. The reserve of diesel fuel is enough to 15 hours of operation in winter and up to 30 in the summer. It all depends on the outdoor temperature. It looks very neat and even in something futuristic.

10. Passenger cars look no less space.

11. The whole train has a pass-through pass, while Eurogabriton imposes its limitations - all the corridors already, than "us", and two full people will be difficult to disperse. In the photo at the end of the corridor folding chair and table. Yes, this is the place of the conductor. He has no more coupe, where you can always buy a chocolate "Alenka" and order a chap.

12. Standard coupe. Lying shelves are hidden in the niches of the walls. Right on the far plan - the ladder to climb up. On the shelf from above - folding tables for each chair. Tickets in such a coupe cost from 10,000 rubles.

13. View on the other side.

14. If the shelves have such a coupe in the unfolded state and resembles our Russian trains, then this similarity ends.

15. Instead of the usual table - a sink with a crane!

16. A sedentary car, the cheapest travel option - from 9000 rubles for a place. Retractable tables from armrest, individual outlets, normal distance between the seats, footrest, hooks for clothes - the equipment is excellent.

17. Sitting comfortable, like a business class in an airplane, but 20 hours spend sitting - it is cool. In fact, these places are designed primarily for those who will ride between Belorussia, Warsaw and Berlin at distances passing for 3-6 hours.

18. Twin St. It was in such a "room" I was driving to Berlin. The ticket cost 17,000 rubles - both places are bought out for this money, and travel one. Driving with a neighbor costs about 13,000 rubles for a place.

19. In SV, too, has its own sink.

20. Option with laid beds. An interesting feature: if you decompose a bed for everyone, then only an athlete will be able to slam the shelf back to the wall. You need to attach a bunch of effort to laugh a pillow with a blanket, and the shelf entered its place. But this is a full-fledged bed. Wide and long, moderately tough, as I love. With my height, 178, legs and hands did not rest in anything.

But to go sitting with decomposed beds turned out to be closely - the head rests on the upper shelf. Therefore, either lie on the beds, or fold the shelves and go sitting in chairs. I used the folding staircase as a table for a laptop.

21. And this is a family coupe, with a rather strange layout solution. These are two standard SV, with an extra common door (right in the photo).

22. For all listed classes in each car there is one bathroom. It is quite enough, because the cars are small, people are placed a little. Moreover, everyone has their own shells. But that's not all. There are places even cooler - these are luxury cars, where in every "room" there is your own toilet and shower!

23. Voila. No wonder the ticket in the suite is like a flight to Berlin business class: 30000 per person or 50,000 per coupe whole.

24. In addition to a separate cabin with a shower, the suite differs from the links of the TV and a safe. There is also a small table. Just a table, not a sink.

25. Let's see a little on the details. Stop crane, hammer for breaking glass, speaker and air conditioner regulator. It is worth noting that in this train I completely forgot about the word "stuffy". The air exchange system worked perfectly, so at night I slept perfectly.

26. Sink, though small, but it is enough to wash, wash the fruit / vegetables.

27. Under the sink was hidden by a microworld of the size of three tomika war and the world.

28. Side niche with 4 hangers for outerwear and a spacious luggage shelf, in the corner of which are folding tables.

29. The decision is controversial, since when the table has already been established, neither to get up, nor sit in the chair will not work. Personally, I took it only to take a photo.

30. It looks like a spacious coupe for passengers with limited physical abilities.

31. Behind the door - giant bathroom with shower, sink and toilet.

32. Well, finally, the main part of the train - the car-restaurant and car bar)

33. In one car - seats with tables, in another - kitchen and bar counter.

34. The train will run twice a week, going from the Kursk station of Moscow on Saturdays and Sundays at 13:05 and arriving at the station Berlin Island at 07:19 next day local time.

I listened to the reporter's speech for a long time, and he was shot down and carried some nonsense. Then it turned out that he spoke Polish)

35. Now a few words about the ride itself and its rationality. Why go by train to Berlin 20 hours, when for the same money you can fly by plane at times faster? The question is good, but in fact the situation can easily arise when such a trip will be justified. Imagine that I once again going to shoot in German Railway exhibition to Germany. Get up at 3 o'clock in the morning, go to the airport, to fly somewhere and then shoot a whole day - thanks, no need, I have passed more than once. In order to get ready to work in the morning and with full forces to come to Messe Berlin, you need to fly by an evening flight, to move at the hotel, and sleep.

I usually get to the airport about two hours and try to come two hours before departure. The flight itself lasts 2.5 hours. All together, with the passage of customs control, getting baggage from home to the hotel is 7-8 hours steadily. That is, at midnight to sleep in Berlin and go to work in the morning, you need to go out of 5-6 pm.

Personally, my road from home to my coupe took 29 minutes. I came out at 12:30. At the same time, there were no procedures for putting baggage, inspection, sterile zone, planting waiting and so on. I went to the car, sat down and drove. It turns out that the time loss is no longer so big, just five hours. But what buns! And for the extra night in the hotel in Berlin you do not need to pay)

36. And in comfort, the modern train is much better than the aircraft, there is nothing to say. And there are no endless airport queues. Who flew from Berlin or Frankfurt to Moscow, will understand me.

37. Even a small flight will not be compared by the number of running and bustle for a minute.

39. Talked: "We are always in a hurry somewhere, running. Do not allow yourself a pause. We do not have time to be alone with you, with your loved one. Sit in silence, think about something. View out the window. Flight by plane is rather teleportation, while often the flight itself takes less time than the pre-flight procedures, and the train ride is the real journey. And we ordered a kitchen service in Germany, in Moscow it is 6 times more expensive. This is how you can bring home service in preservation, how not by train? "

40. The car-restaurant will not empty the whole trip. At the same time, the audience was completely different. From businessmen with expensive clock to guys in slaps and sleeping pajamas. Asked several visitors why they chose the train. Someone wanted to safely relax on the way, coming to Berlin without the fuss of airports. Someone had to carry a large luggage. Two was told that they would always drive, and do not see the reasons to change habits. The first flight was full under the string - all the tickets were bought out for a couple of weeks before departure.

I managed to distribute local cuisine several times and stayed in complete delight. The only nuance of the first train - the restaurant did not have time to debug the payment system on the cards. I had only 500 rubles, which I exchanged for borsch. And then I had to look for good people who changed me 50 euros on rubles. Otherwise, it would have to go to Berlin to starve, or to look for homeless bags on stalls at short stops in Orshe or Brest)

41. For the inspection of the train, lunch and talk time flew quickly. In the evening we were already on the Minsk train station. The declared Wiifai worked, but did not let the Internet. There was another reason to relax from work and network.

42. From the shortcomings of the trip, I would like to mention the slow passage of the Polish border. Belarusians missed us quickly, and Poles merged and detained the train for an hour. As a result, it was possible to go to bed only after passport control in 2 nights. Due to the delay in Berlin, we arrived late for 30 minutes. It is clear that with the train running, these processes will debug, optimize and improve. And I did not even notice the process of changing the track.

At 7:40 resurrection, I stood on the platform of the Ostbakhov station. Under the legs was scattered reagent with marble crumb. The police held a mind of a firing and staggering homeless. Some gopniks with broken and drunken persons tried to talk to me. As if from Moscow and did not leave)
