Keywords : Sapsan; TGV; ICE; speed train; Abstract : Wealthy Russians, business people and foreigners (including the author of this note) breathe sighs of relief when thinking about making the trip from Moscow to St. Petersburg (and, more recently, Nizhny Novgorod and Vladimir). For roughly a year now one has been able to travel in comfort on the Sapsan, a high speed train built by German technology conglomerate, Siemens, which makes the 700 or so kilometre trip between the two Russian megacities in just three-anda- half hours. One has only to watch the birch trees and wooden houses flying past the window to be reminded that you are not onboard a Thalys, TGV or ICE between Brussels, Berlin or Paris. |
