Controllers
In the Ryazan direction, controllers prefer to travel on long-distance trains (the further the train, the greater the likelihood of their presence). On electric trains up to 47 km, only about a third of the electric trains go; they usually board Lyubertsy 1 in the last car and go to Bykovo or Ramenskoye. It is also quite possible not to meet controllers on rare flights to Faustovo and Vinogradovo. Usually 1 car to run. The Ryazan ones shake almost the entire route, excluding Moscow.
On the Kazan direction, controllers are on all trains with rare exceptions (they may be busy on early morning and late evening trains). Usually one team gets into the last car in Lyubertsy 1, or into the first car in Korenevo. They can get off at any stop from Gzhel to Kurovskaya. Occasionally they don’t get off at Kurovskaya, but go in the opposite direction to Shatura. It is very easy to monitor the controls, since 10-15 people are running from each carriage. On long-distance routes (to Cherusti, mainly transit routes to Vekovka) there may be two brigades going in the same direction at a distance of half an electric train from each other. There is usually one carriage to run.
Both in the Kazan and Ryazan directions, counters almost never interfere with those running across and do not return for them. Moreover, on the Kazan direction, which is the second in terms of “percentage of hares in a carriage,” if the guards checked the entire carriage before stopping, they do not go to the next one, but wait until the doors open and the vestibule is free of defectors! Usually counters are accompanied by a passive private security company.
The Cherusti-Vekovka section, which lost its direct connection with Moscow in 2013 (officially, in fact, there are two direct flights on weekends), has its own harsh counters, from which it is difficult to escape, but possible. They pass once or twice. The number of passages is inversely proportional to the number of cars on the train (from 6 to 11).
Sometimes there are controllers in satellites up to Ramenskoye, sometimes there aren’t. Occasionally they can even be in almost every carriage.
On REX express trains, sometimes you have to run only once to Golutvin, but often the counters go back and forth, sometimes even sitting in every carriage.
It is very difficult to travel on the Moscow-Ryazan express without a ticket, except on short sections. The outhouse rides (but not the entire route). At the entrance to the cars there are conductors, PDS-type tickets indicating the seat.
On the Moscow-Shatura express, the speed is about the level of regular TsPPKs, you can run, sometimes you have to take 2 cars each. The running controller is hampered by the small number of stops.
Other information about the direction
Rolling stock
The Ryazan direction is served by PM-7 Ramenskoye (area 47 km), Kazanskoye - by PM-26 Kurovskaya. Regular electric trains in both directions are ED4M produced in 2002-2009. Trains ТЧ-26 are kept in good condition, ТЧ-7 - in mediocre condition. Starting with the number ED4M-0182, all electric trains were supplied with small folding “murderer” windows. For the Moscow - Ramenskoye satellites, oblique headlights ED4M are used, for the Moscow - Golutvin express trains - ED4M-0352 and 0353. The Moscow-Shatura express train - ED4M-0483.
Features of directions
The directions go together from the station to the station. Lyubertsy 1. The Ryazan direction goes further south, being the original main route of the Trans-Siberian Railway. Kazanskoye - to the north, towards Murom. It is believed that the section Moscow - Lyubertsy 1 belongs to the Ryazan direction. But some call both directions as a whole the Kazan direction.
On the sections Moscow - Ryazan and Moscow - Korenevo, train movement on all main tracks is on the left.
There are 4 main tracks on the Moscow - Ramenskoye section. Usually the suburb runs 1/2 with a large number of stops, but some long-distance trains and express trains run 3/4. Stops are possible along 3/4 of the tracks: Moscow, Sortirovochnaya (to Moscow), Novaya (to Moscow), Frezer (to Moscow), Perovo (to Moscow), Vykhino, Kosino, Lyubertsy 1, Fabrichnaya (from Moscow), Ramenskoye (electric trains) next further there is no stop at square 47 km).
The Ryazan direction was repaired in the mid-2000s on the Moscow - Ramenskoye section. All platforms and rolling stock were updated, many stations and platforms received turnstiles. In the Kazan direction, only the rolling stock was updated. Many platforms are in poor condition, some are falling apart (73 km).
On the Ryazan direction, speeds are low on the Moscow - Ramenskoye section due to the large number of nearby stops, but otherwise they are relatively high. Some stops are missed, mainly by electric trains that continue further than 47 km. But not always: there are even Golutvin ones with all the stops. On the Kazan direction in the mid-2000s, some trains were canceled by adding stops to others, so that the vast majority of trains run with all stops. But beyond Gzhel, where the distance between stops becomes greater, the speeds also increase significantly.
There are branches: Golutvin - Ozyory (run RA2 in winter and DP1-M in summer, 30 pairs per week), Krivandino - Ryazanovka, Rybnoye - Uzunovo, Lyubertsy-2 - Dzerzhinsky and Lukhovitsy - Zaraysk (the last two are now purely cargo).
High platforms on the sections Moscow - Golutvin and Moscow - Vekovka, except for the op. Miltsevo, st. The stream towards Vekovka. On the Golutvin-Ryazan section and its branches, the platforms are low; before/after Golutvin, an assistant walks through the train, raises/lowers the aprons, and provides easy access to the low platform, so running across even the embankment is not a problem.
The Kazan direction intersects with the BMO at station. Kurovskaya. Ryazanskoye - on the square. 88 km, station. Voskresensk. The single tariff zone for Moscow ends at Kosino station.

Demand for commuter trains
The popularity of this type of transport is explained by the fact that many residents of Moscow and the Moscow region cannot afford a car, or do not want to stand in traffic jams for hours, especially since they are only increasing every year. A few more obvious advantages of the electric train are strict adherence to the schedule; flights run regularly, with short intervals.
The train traffic pattern in Moscow is no less than the metro (which is one of the ten largest metros in the world). This fact is not at all surprising, because there are nine railway stations in our capital, and electric trains constantly depart from each of them.
Just in order to relieve passenger traffic, the Ministry of Transport compiled separate routes and distributed them between stations, introduced appropriate tariffs, and equipped them with all the necessary equipment.
Southern direction of electric trains
One of the most popular today is the Kursk direction. The train traffic pattern from this station covers many cities in the Moscow region, and the daily passenger flow is approximately 140,000 people.
The schedule here takes into account the busy morning and evening rush hours, adding even more flights during these periods. Trains depart and arrive so frequently that any passenger can find the most convenient option for himself. The station operates in multitasking mode around the clock. Not even ten minutes pass before a new flight appears at the station. The only break at the Kursk station, fifteen minutes long, is the moment between the arrival of the last train of the current day and the departure of the first in the next hour-long day.
This station is in demand not only among residents of the Moscow region who come to the city from the region on business, but also among Muscovites who find it more convenient to get to their office/factory/enterprise not by metro, but by a commuter train passing through many districts of Moscow.
It often happens that at one station it is impossible to board the train, huge groups of people push each other into the carriage, which is called “like sprats in a jar,” and at another station not a soul will board. This largely depends on the population of a particular town. The most popular points among passengers on the Kursk direction electric train route map are Kursky Station, Tsaritsyno, Tekstilshchiki, Podolsk. Of course, at these stations the timetable is prepared taking into account such high congestion, and trains stop more often. In addition to these stations, the train route runs through Butovo, Shcherbinka, Lvovskaya, Stolbovaya, Chekhov, Serpukhov, Yasnogorsk, Tarusskaya. In particular, you can easily get to Orel and Tula by express trains.
Some stations, for example, Stolbovaya, Moscow Tovarnaya Kurskaya, Kalanchevskaya, Tsaritsyno, Tekstilshchiki, are interchange stations to neighboring Russian Railways directions or metro stations.
Eastern direction of electric trains
Among residents of Moscow and the Moscow region, the Kazan direction electric train route is no less popular. Daily passenger traffic is approximately 330,000 people. And at the Kazansky station, of course, which is the most popular point in this direction, 230 electric trains arrive and depart every day, 50 of which are Sputnik express trains, to the Ramenskoye and Lyubertsy stations. The second busiest stop here is Vykhino.
The traffic pattern of electric trains in the Kazan direction, as well as in the Kursk direction, is characterized by a high intensity of flights arriving and departing from the terminal station every eight minutes. From here you can get to the following cities near Moscow: Lyubertsy, Kurovskoye, Yegoryevsk, Shatura, Ramenskoye, Zhukovsky, Bronnitsy, Voskresensk, Ozery, Lukhovitsy, Kolomna, Cherusti. You can take an express train to Ryazan.
Northeast direction of electric trains
Of course, when considering this issue, one cannot help but note the importance of the Yaroslavsky station in the movement of electric trains in Moscow and the Moscow region. It is located next to Kazansky and Leningradsky, on Komsomolskaya Square, called the “Square of Three Stations”. Here the passenger flow is approximately 450,000 people per day! This is many times more than on all other routes. The maximum number of people moving in the Yaroslavl direction daily makes their way to the final stop of the route - the Yaroslavl station. Ten tracks of which are dedicated specifically to commuter trains. Next in popularity is Mytishchi. Next stop in the city of Pushkino. The fourth place went to the Bolshevo platform, followed by the Podlipki-Dachnye, Losinoostrovskaya, and Perlovskaya stops.
From the Yaroslavsky station you can get to the Moscow region cities of Alexandrov, Mytishchi, Pushkino, Sofrino, Khotkovo, Sergiev Posad, Krasnoarmeysk, Korolev, Ivanteevka, Fryazino, Shchelkovo, Monino.
From the final stops, Kazansky and Leningradsky railway stations, it is convenient to switch to neighboring Russian Railways routes, and from Yaroslavskaya you will quickly find yourself at the Komsomolskaya station of the Moscow Metro.
How are things going with commuter trains in St. Petersburg?
There are not as many train stations in the Northern capital of Russia as in Moscow. There are only five of them: Moscow, Vitebsk, Finland and Baltic, Ladoga. At the same time, the traffic pattern of St. Petersburg electric trains, in its scale, practically does not differ from the Moscow one discussed above.
In total, the St. Petersburg schedule includes 702 flights, 250 of them run daily, and the rest - according to the schedule. The most popular requests on this topic in the Leningrad region are traffic diagrams for the Finlyandsky and Moskovsky train stations.
Finlyandsky Station St. Petersburg
Located in the city center, at Lenin Square, building 6, it is an important link in the life of the city and is part of the Oktyabrskaya Railway. By the decision of the administration of the transport committee of St. Petersburg in 2010, Finlyandsky Station became the main transport hub, including all possible ground options for road and rail transport connections in the northwestern direction.
Passenger traffic here is approximately 36,000 people per day. At the moment, the station receives and dispatches only electric trains in the northwestern and northeastern directions: Vyborgskoye, Irinovskoye, Sosnovskoye. From here, you can take regular flights to the following cities in the Leningrad region: Zelenogorsk, Beloostrov, Vyborg (including by express train), Roshchino, Sovetsky, Kirillovskoye, Sestroretsk, Kannelyarvi.
The only long-distance express route is the Allegro train St. Petersburg-Helsinki.
Train traffic diagram at Moskovsky Station
This station is located in the very heart of St. Petersburg on Nevsky Prospekt (address: Vosstaniya Square, building 2) and has its own unique history. Being an exact double of the Leningradsky Station in Moscow, it allows Muscovites who arrive here to feel at home in the first few minutes. Both buildings were built according to the designs of the court architects of Nicholas I - architects Ton and Zhelezevich. Currently, the passenger terminal of the Moscow railway station is called Main. Sometimes you can find its old name - Oktyabrsky.
The important directions of trains at this station are eastern, Moscow and southern. Passenger traffic is approximately 27,000 people per day. More than 90 commuter trains run here every day: St. Petersburg - Tikhvin, Malaya Vishera, Tosno, Chudovo, Mga, Volkhovstroy, Budogoshch, Nevdubstroy, Lyuban, Pupyshevo, and there are frequent express trains to Veliky Novgorod.
