The station on this site opened in 1851. This building was completed by 1855 and is the twin of Moscow's Leningradsky station with many trains both classic and Sapsan high-speed variants running between the two day and night. RZD (Russian railways) say that Moskovsky station is the third busiest in Russia and if the frantic nature of the roads and car park in front of the station, as seen in this scene was anything to go by I believe them!
