Lastochka

The Russian electrichka (commuter train) has been replaced by a faster and more modern Lastochka train (the name means Swallow and continues a tradition to name Russian high-speed trains after birds). Lastochka connects Moscow and St. Petersburg with many other destinations like Nizhny Novgorod, Velikiy Novgorod, Petrozavodsk etc. High-speed electric train "Lastochka" (Desiro RUS) was developed by Siemens AG. It consists of 5 cars. The electric train can reach speeds of up to 160 km / h. It can be operated in a dual mode (5 + 5 cars).

Seat options limited, no first class option on this train. Not enough leg room for a tall person like me.

The train was punctual, roomy and very clean. There were refreshments and the staff were polite. Only downside I can think of is that the seats were not very comfortable, but that's because I am 195 cm, looking forward to my next trip!

This train type is intended for short regional travel, not for four-hour long haul journeys. It was sold out too, so there was little space. But it was perfectly punctual, clean, and efficient.
