Accomodation on the train

When in the train, there are 3 classes of coaches:

1st class (spalnyi): 2-berth compartments, 9 compartments per coach. Both beds are at the lower level. Lavatories are at the both ends of the corridor. It is twice more expensive than 2 class, but it has twice the space per passenger.

2nd class (kupe): 4-berth compartments, 9 compartments per coach. Lavatories are at the both ends of the corridor.

3rd class (plazkartyi): 54 bunks per coach, arranged in bays of 2 along the coach wall on one side of the aisle and in bays of 4 on the other side of the aisle. It is the cheapest option but least comfortable.

Prices of Wild Russia's Trans Siberian tours are based on 2nd class coaches.

There are 2 train attendants per coach. They will check your tickets and probably your passport before boarding, and soon after departure take one sheet from your ticket and bedding fee (about 2$).

You can put your luggage either under the lower bunk or on the shelf under ceiling.
