Russian Railways plans to convert old carriages without air conditioning or portable toilets into low-cost rail carriers, according to RIA Novosti, citing the annual report of the Federal Passenger Company.<\/p>\n

The document presents strategic objectives The company plans to use the old carriages to create a separate low-cost class\u2014"economy budget"\u2014and to launch three classes of service on the remaining trains.<\/p>\n

In the future, trains may reportedly be divided into three types: daytime express, nighttime train, and traditional train. Each of these, in turn, will be divided into several service classes: "economy-budget," "economy," "comfort," and "business." The "daytime express" will cover distances of up to 600 kilometers and last up to six hours. Business class passengers will enjoy premium comfort and full hotel-quality service, while comfort class passengers will enjoy a range of services for a comfortable journey. Economy class will be a budget option with access to additional services, while economy-budget will be an ultra-budget option without any services.<\/p>\n

The "Night Train" will allow passengers to enjoy a restful sleep. Travel time is up to 12 hours, and distances are up to 1,500 kilometers. "Business Class" includes sleeping and luxury cars, "Comfort" includes compartments, "Economy" includes high-density open carriages, and "Economy Budget" includes reserved seats. Another option, the "Traditional Train," is available for long-distance journeys lasting over 12 hours. "Business Class" will guarantee premium comfort and full hotel-quality service, while "Comfort" offers a range of services for a restful sleep without the high cost. "Economy" will be a budget option with additional amenities, and "Economy Budget" will be an ultra-budget option without services, but with the option to sleep.<\/p>\n

As Russian Railways noted, the use of older carriages without air conditioning or portable toilets as a low-cost option with a unique price offer will be temporary, until they are completely decommissioned.<\/p>\n
