Home time in Moscow is characterised by unbelievable congestion! We

walked along the side of this line of cars for some ten minutes and they simply did not move. In the background is Moscow's Kiyevsky station with its huge train shed. Trains from Kiyevsky generally go south and west from the city principally to Ukraine and some of the Baltic states. There used to be true inter-continental services to Romania, Hungary and as far as Venice. There are also a number of suburban platforms and the airport express services to Moscow's Vnukovo airport.
