St. Pete-Tallinn Rail Restored

Direct train service between Tallinn and St. Petersburg resumed Sunday after an almost four-year break, the Go Rail transport company said in a statement.

Go Rail's Tallinn-St. Petersburg train will make the seven-hour trip daily in each direction, departing at 7:03 a.m. from Tallinn and 7:32 p.m. from St. Petersburg. The ticket costs 25 euros ($31).

The Tallinn-St. Petersburg link was suspended over a lack of profitability in 2008. Russian Railways offers direct service to Tallinn from Moscow.
