I took a ride on Russia's bullet train - the Sapsan in First Class, and enjoyed the best high speed train I've ever taken.

Never been to Russia 🇷🇺 but such beautiful trip made me tempted

The amount of space between seats astonished me. It was like a living room instead of a form of mass tansit!

Took my family on Sapsan from Moscow to St.Petersburg a few years ago. Travelled in a business class. Great train, amazing service. Everything was just fantastic. ❤️🇷🇺

I suffered with great anxiety from the beginning of the pandemic and found your channel quite helpful by seeing you travel safely and happily!!! As crazy as it sounds, you GENUINELY helped me get through it!!! And for that, I THANK YOU!!!🙏🙏🙏

The service on this train is amazing especially if you compare it to the “first class” offered by Deutsche Bahn (ICE)

Hi Noel, I traveled that train Moscow to St Petersburg back in late 2019. We went business class. Still such an amazing experience. Super glad we had a personal Tour-guide! He was amazing

As someone who's experienced the delights of the Japanese Shinkansens many times, I'd take a bullet train any day. Saying that, if I wasn't in any rush and wanted to take my time I'd take the Krasnaya Strela.

I'd love to visit St Petersburg, even more after seeing that lovely station.

The Sapsan was manufacted by Siemens in Germany the Same Train Model are used by Deutsche Bahn (German Railway Company). And called ICE (Inter City Express) Top Speed 330 km/h
In Germany this train are drive on the New High Speed Track Munich-Berlin. So The travel time between Munich and Berlin is only 4 1/2 hours and between Frankfurt and Colonge 1 1/2 hours. In addition, this train for Germany is equipped with a multi-system electricity transformer, so that this train also runs from Frankfurt to Brussels, Amsterdam and Paris. Great Video 👍 Best Regards from Russian Guy lives in Germany.

So jealous! Looks like a brilliant option between the 2 cities 👍

I love the little bag of things you get to help with the journey 😀

The last time I took a 4 hour train trip in the UK, I couldn't even get a seat. Never mind an amenity kit and I paid £85 for the journey. Think I'll move to Russia.

[ferglesnerk]

I love the way to tell us you're off to Moscow around 50 times and mention Sapsan just as often. LOL. Great train, great video.

Wife and I did both Красная Стрела and Сапсан between Moscow and St. Petersburg. On the trip back to Moscow we didn’t do first class but even coach/economy was really nice. America could learn so much from РЖД and other European rail companies like Thalys (now Eurostar) and Ouigo in Spain.
