Ukraine Sleeper Train: The World's Slowest Train?

when here in Gujarat in western Ukraine and this is really as far west as you can get in Ukraine about three miles to my right in the west is the border with Slovakia and Castile it's not much further than what I just said I arrived aboard a Yak-40 built in Russia with Motor Siege Airlines whose garage they take air tours and the only way to get out of here now is to take the

train

because the next flight doesn't leave for five days, Friday, the only option really. is to take a taxi or a bus through the CAHSEE chain in Slovakia and take a flight home from there or I can take the

train

from here to get to "Amado" which is what I'm doing.

I'm going to take a bed. train with ukrainian railways or two in love is where I'll be able to connect from then on, I'm really looking forward to seeing this or

sleeper

trains are like in much of the

world

, it's a completely new experience at least for me and me. Obviously I've done them in the UK and also the US, but this will be a new experience to try a

sleeper

train in Ukraine, so what would it be like? Well, let's get into the station and find out as we go up. to viv rush cross station was rebuilt in 2004 but still retains its charm despite being a modern building, there are not many facilities here just a large waiting room and a bar which was closed, there are local shops and restaurants throughout On the way I was able to get a large pizza and two beers for less than four quid.

The station serves trains to stations throughout the Transcarpathian region, as well as long-distance trains to kyiv, Odessa, Kharkiv, Simferopol and Moscow, as well as, of course, living as I waited for my train, it soon became dark outside and the station became empty. before the two night trains heading to kyiv and L'viv, so the trains arrive in about 20 minutes or so, it just appears on the departure screen. I think it goes from here. platform here I think this is a hoax, but there are no signs anywhere, there are no other trains around, so hopefully the only train that arrives will be the one with the correct trains on the way on just white lines right over there.

I slept, I don't know what I'm going to take there when the train arrived. I found my car and showed myself the tickets from the car attendant or Providence. I boarded the train and headed down the aisle where I finally made it. I entered my room once this lady was out of the way. I think it's closed. Well, here on the Ukrainian night train and I have chosen a compartment with four beds. There are two up there and now two. Yes, and to do that. I had to buy four tickets, one for each seat, and they only cost about six pounds each plus about seven or eight US dollars each, so in total it cost me about twenty-four pounds and that way you make sure you have a ticket private. compartment, otherwise someone sometime needs it and then other people come and join you.

I'm already a fan of that right, so I'll unpack and just take a look at this room right before we leave at the station we'll be here for approximately. Twenty minutes and he looks at the time just to show you the room. The beds are already made. You have to pay them. Not really a problem up here. I thought the door was closed. It is not like this. They just dropped this in the room. I don't know what it is or towels, okay, I have towels. I assume there is a bathroom somewhere on board. Oh, we have a little storage space here.

It was like this: quilts, blankets and things, hangers. I need to figure out how to close this door. only here I really don't know, I don't know, random people convinced my room at night, the lice that are here don't know what they're doing, they don't seem to do anything right now, figure that out in a moment there. There is luggage storage up here, it all feels like an old lady's living room to be honest, look at the curtains, beautiful pink cans, an amazing tablecloth on the table right here and the rugs on the floor, look at this, very cool, very retro, not knock at all, but very retro, we have a light up here, zoom, judging by what's there, it's volume or potentially air conditioning.

I don't know, I'll check the translation in a while, another one comes on there. Oh, Tom doesn't. everything is fine, most things and he doesn't seem to do anything other than storage up there and a random controller placed above the door. I need to develop this gadget to figure out how I close this door, which is thought to be honest for the amount of I paid for this 20 24 pounds for this, it's about the standard rate for a hotel here in Ukraine, anyway, actually, this It's what she thought was the bed under the towel, even though it's just fitted sheets.

I think it's essentially an autopsy as well. I also want a pillowcase for the pillow and something else, there is no power anywhere in this compartment that I can see, so bring a battery with you, it's mine, soon we leave the station just in time, so on the move by ml in motion. They just brought me a cup of tea in the elevators. I hope I've seen it sometime. It's still red hot. You will have to find a way to cool it because it is very difficult and see how much. to sleep and I'm not too optimistic to be completely honest, it's red hot and the door is closed, but the cabinet ruling seems to be able to disable me in that will, yes, I'm going to have a cup of tea and that's it.

About I think I woke up to my alarm at 5:30 am. m. after sleeping about five hours. The Prophet, sir, was charming and despite the language barrier, I felt like my grandmother was chasing me into one of the strangest coffee sets I have ever purchased. a couple different filter coffees than ours, which I like, this coffee service seemed to have gotten a little lost in translation when they brought me a packet of instant coffee in hot water, so now it's 5:30 in the morning . I just woke him up. I should have slept about five hours. We're still a little sleepy, but we'll be there in about half an hour.

This train is so slow. We have been, we have spent the night hiding. From looking towards Tel Aviv it's a distance of about 120 miles, but they actually say their six houses are 120 miles, which means our office speed was like 20 miles per hour. It's a very slow train, but it's still quite comfortable if you can get through. the kind of retro feel to the rooms and which I think works with the real Ukrainian system, it's actually a comfortable way to travel as we approached the fifth the sky started to get brighter and we sailed through the suburbs towards soil. thief station I put my tickets for today's trip on the Ukrainian Railways website, which is quite easy to use.

Tickets go on sale within 45 days and you really have to be quick and buy them as soon as they go on sale because they do sell out. It came out a couple of days after it went on sale and then it was in your living room, although it was a great experience, wasn't it? Overall it was a great trip through Ukraine, taking trains in this part of the

world

is great. way to get as close to the local lifestyle as possible. I was quite surprised that all the trains on the night I traveled arrived on time until the time the rail service here seems to be incredibly efficient and therefore right on time 5:58 in the morning, right on time we are actually here in L'viv, brilliant, right at the top of the tree, they brought it during the night, it was a really cool night train, very random experience, very different to what I'm used to, but it was still good. anyway, I really hope you enjoyed this, let me know what you think of this type of sleeper trains.

I want you to see more of these random sleeper train rides from around the world because I don't mind taking them, they're really Well, naturally, let me know in the comments section below, but in the meantime, thanks for watching, take care and I'll see you around next time here in the informative video.
