Train ride Minsk to Brest

At the railway station in Minsk, I boarded a business class train to Brest.


From the design it looked like a private train in Germany, definitely not the old Soviet style.

older trains

Inside you had 3+2 seating and from time to time you could sit across from each other but unlike in ICE there was no table in the middle as well no tables at the other seats.

Two women checked the tickets and when they had completed that task, passed through several times with soft drinks, chips and sweets.


In three hours, we covered 340 km to Brest non-stop passing some villages, two towns, a handful of fields and a lot of forest.


Much less adventurous than any other train ride I took in CIS.
