  • The best thing Iv seen on Utube

  • Why a steering wheel on a locomotive?

  • @waffleone3 This is not a steering wheel, it's a throttle control handle.

    This is standard question for Russian locomotives :)

  • Ебаный стыд а не времена.

  • This guy does not sound like any American accent I have ever heard. I have also been all over the U.S. There are other countries that speak English. 

  • @madlib696 I'm from the US. This guy could be from the US, but even if he is, this isn't how he really speaks. This is a dramatic "over done" voice. Noone talks like this. I'd hate to be this guy's travelling companion!

  • vladivostok is end

  • in soviet russia, train drives you.

  • why there are two continents Asia and Europe in one landmass? who decide the boundary for this two continents? continent should be bound by sea, like America, Australia and Antarctica. i think people in Asia could call them self European and vise verse.

  • @wyunaboy watch?v=3uBcq1x7P34 that should answer your question fairly maybe :)

  • I'm getting the Trans Siberian train from Beijing to Moscow and I was wondering could I get a train from Moscow to Paris?

  • @john3000931 City Night Line offers regular service between Moscow and Amsterdam, From Amsterdam you could take the Thalys high speed train to Paris.

  • um ya whats with the steering wheel on the train???

  • The narrator is sooooooo irritating , how condescending can you get?!

  • this guy's voooo....ice. is irritatiiiii..ing

  • KNockin on heavens Door or Keep on Rockin On the Free World !!!!!!!!!!

  • такой ржачь, но приятно видеть русские рожи и плацкартные вагоны, недавно в Кирове был.

  • If you took a train "Russia" from Moscow to Vladivostok... believe me you could get all that LUXURY... especially now... when the tickets is more expensive than the flight tickets.

  • Having tea personally brought into your private compartment is "just a SMALL TOUCH of luxury" according to that snivelling American? What the hell? So what would be LARGE luxury? If she poured it down their mouths herself?

  • @webeffect , stay cool. he was impressed. i take it you didn't notice the comraderie on the train.

  • He sounds like a little kid who doesn't like his firend because he has a better toy!

  • Holy crap! I can't believe the blatant DISTASTE the narrator has for Russia! How obvious is this American propaganda?!

  • what song is the guy playing at 7:39 ?

  • This kind of makes me want to put my head down on a desk and fall asleep.

    But I'm a grown up now and I dig it.

  • in soviet russia trains have steering wheels.... :D

  • bought some beer, smoking cigarettes and watching documentaries all day long! :)

  • ahhh im soo happy found this :) i love russia i'm hoping to go there on holiday next year and i want to move there sone day

  • Bocmok (Vostok) actually means "East" NOT "Warrior"!

  • Whats the song playing at 8:44? i like it!!

  • this guy doesnt sound american im american and i havent heard an accent like this...btw Russia ftw!

  • Somehow this guy's accent grates on the ears. Is it american accent? But I have american accents that sound much better and not this drawl the commentator gives. Sounds lazy.

  • Great video

  • Great video

  • Is it safe for people of color like to visit Russia, i mean esp. cities like on the Trans siberian railway track or even smaller cities? I am very interested to make such a trip as above in the documentary.

  • @rallen888 if u are not georgian or tchetchen (we call em "Hutchik"s), and if youre not an radical islam terrorist - you havent any reasons for trouble =)

  • @serresjio

    Hello, Can you tell me about the situation between the Russians and the Tchetchens? I hear about it a lot but I don't know what's going on, is it an issue about independence? You would help me a lot

  • @OperFans first of all this is an issue about ethnic "cleansings", hostage business, narcotic trafficking and stealings performed by first illegitimate tchetchen government

  • @serresjio I have heard of Africans getting attacked and killed in Russia for no reason by Neo-Nazis. I know they aren't representative of all Russians. I know better than that. The fear of being attacked and killed is still there.

  • 6:30

    "meow"

  • once a week that train journey of the train starts from Berlin ...:

  • Blja jobanie resnie cuukas amerikaani nesuuda nesajeedz no labiem vilcieniem

  • Дааа. не понять америкосам нашей родины...

  • Can anyone help, Im heading from Beijing to Moscow and i really want to use the Trans siberian train, any idea of costs? or helpful info, websites...anything?

  • this person commentating is so patronising its unbelievable

  • @Abu451 its like having someone with vomit breath breathing whispering in your ear.

  • what's that stearing wheel

  • @ShwangShwing the accelarator

  • whats the song at 8:40 =D?

  • ....My family and I did the trip from Krasnoyarsk to Moscow back in 1994. Mid summer. Awesome trip!...

  • maximum speed .... about 100 miles in hour..... maybe, when IT WAS YOUNG)))))))

    Вот это он четко про чеха высказал))

  • Это видео очень старое. Сейчас все не так!

  • My advice to people who want's to do it, bring lots of books

  • I want to take this train so much! And it is really cool how Americans and Russians get along very well on this train. When I take this train, I am going to drink so much damn vodka! hahaha

  • Amazing !! Thanks!

  • awesome! thanks for posting

  • I want to remind everyone that this film was made in 1996, 14 years ago.Since when things have changed dramatically in Siberia and Russia overall.

    There are new, more comfortable trains, countryside would look more modern, and towns and cities along  the road look prosperous.

  • @PutinProper yah I rode a much more modern version of this but on this route it took 15 days I started in Vladavostok and went to Moscow stopping to take in Real Russian culture I was on a whet I would classify a Russian version of the Orient Express the Trans Siberian Golden Eagle owned by a man out of the UK under Russian RR system to show tourist Russia but I saw Raw Russia not the modern tourist traps this however is still how most will always see Russia as unfortunatlly

  • @PutinProper Yes, things have changed dramatically in Siberia/Russia since end of USSR. Now people die of cold because there is no heating unless you can pay it. And now train fare is like 10 times more expensive.

  • @estoyaqui85

    People in Russia live better now than in USSR times.

    On the other hand, Russia is a second world country with no real prospect of developing modern science or technology - this is true.

  • LISTEN TO "OS ESPACIAIS" FROM BRAZIL

  • Very nice documentary. The only thing close to that train in my country could be the seasonal train (it only works in summer bringing tourists to the coast, almost all the cities have a train like that), that leaves my city (in the west most part of my country) towards the coast (in the east most part), the journey takes only 15 hours but it's still a bit hard as much of the jurney is made by night, and is bloody slow for an refurbished train.

  • Thank you for a very nice video.

    First time I ever saw a steering wheel in a railroad locomotive?

  • It's not a steering wheel , it's a ratchet.

  • :)))) it's not a steering wheel my boy it's the throttle , many eastern europe locos have that kinda stuff, it's not like the new ones that have a lever that u push forward to accelerate and backwards to decelerate.

  • to gygyman64:

    Well thank you for that information. So I guess that makes it a 'speeding wheel'. lol

  • U can call it like that if u want :)))

  • Some great images! Bravo!

  • Definitely agreed about people. Russian people is one if not THE main treasure of Russia :)

    Thanks for the movie, although some scenes are shown not as ' poor looking' or 'gloomy' these days.

  • maybe next year.. after 3 years spent dreaming it

  • the 1990s.. far from perfect, but who would think the future would be worse? for russia it was a terrible time economically but they were so nice back then. now to be russian is to be a pig, both literally & figuratively. even americans were friendly. look at those college students, 10 years later they're about 500% more pretentious. and superficial, look everyone is satisfied with casual clothing, now everyone has to impress..looking like a korean pop star.

    fucking life. fucking nostalgia

  • btw that's one hell of a ride !!!

  • I LOVE RUSSIA !! grtz from your Kazakh neighbour !!

  • Is this narrated by Rod Roddy, the guy from "The Price is Right"?!

  • Great to watch, to bad about the american voice

  • Agreed. I hate American accent.

  • I have to agree there.

  • The narrator is REALLY fucking annoying!

  • And this video-is what the people from abroad see in Russia, and what they did noticed in russian life style, things what u not see, bcause u r probably russian and u've seen all of this since u've been born in Russia or in USSR. And for them it is new and a bit weird u know...Believe me, i know what Im talking about. And it will be always like that for americans, brits, africans, brazilians or fucking aliens from mars...samovar, vodka, fucking cold Siberia, and whatever else it is...alwayzzz ))

  • Many things here are not true. The whole report is clearly made for americans.

  • Correct. Though note that this was made almost 30 years ago!

  • more like 12 or 13 btw im Russian and i don't like America

  • Fair enough pal, I hadn't noticed the text in the box : )

    I'm going to be taking this trip from Moscow to Beijing on the trans-Mongolian line. I really can't wait to see your beautiful country. I can afford one stop along the way, where would you recommend? Cheers.

  • we like you!! :)

  • Saying you dislike an entire country doesn't make you look like a nationalist, it just makes you look like an idiot.

    Have you ever even been to the United States? Just wondering.

  • @InuyashaKnight That's ok, we don't like russian

  • @InuyashaKnight

    You don't like America, well good for you.

  • Oh seriously, do u realy think most of it is not true? I'll tell u what: This is about 90 percent pure, as it is in real life, and it is made not only for americans btw. I say'd 90 only bcause that was year 1996, and now things are slightly changed, but only in the Moscow area. The rest of Russia is the same as it was in 1980's...same people, same life...nothing changed.

  • Like what? Please enlight us.

  • Just by saying "mysterious, unfamiliar, distant" It might be for the americans, not for me, Iam from Poland.

  • Exactly, because you are from Poland. In the americas we hardly hear about any eastern european country, so trust us when we say Siberia is mysterious and unfamiliar (clearly it´s very very distant, right?), just like somewhere like the amazon must be for you. The fact the documentary was made for people that speak a non-slavic language doesn´t make it bad.

  • I never said its bad :) And, btw Poland is a very nice Country.

  • @pipo3a Y EA STUPID YANKS LOL. .......keep in mind it was made four years after the fall of the USSR, when that corrupt scumbag Yeltzin was still President. It was more accurate back then.

  • this was in 1996 you dumbass

  • Boring? You're an idiot!

  • I'll go on the trans-Siberian from Moscow to Vladivostok and back, next Feb. Does anyone know how much it'll cost for tickets, and food along the way. I'm trying to do it as cheap as possible, I'll be a studying in Heidelberg, Germany and won't have a lot of money.

  • ticket is about 500-600 euros, maybe less... not more I'm sure...

    for food you must calculate...

  • I wonder how old is this movie.

  • it's written in description

    "Copyright PBS 1996" :)

  • That train looks so fun. I would go on that journey someday.

  • I dream of taking this train one day!

  • 1:00 no, "vostok" does not mean "orient" in russian. it means "east".

    i'm not even russian and i know that.

  • okay okay , i was wrong. i just looked it up and it means both "the orient" and "east".

    so , youtube community, please accept my most humble apologies. oh..., and tongue the stale sweat from my b@lls :)

  • In Russian, "Dalniy Vostok" or "Far East" is used to describe the Orient or Asia. I speak Russian so I know.

  • yes, if you look, you will see in the very next post below my original post where i admitted i was wrong.

    since you speak russian you must be familiar with this phrase (please note how "vostok" is used):

    Да́льний Восто́к Росси́и

    so my mistake was in asuming that vostok meant only "east" when in fact it means both "east" and "orient".

    p.s. nice choice of name. you must be a really classy guy.

  • I am a classy guy...I do my best to entertain all of you fools on here. So if you don't like it, just read my username back to yourself, as that is what I'd say to everyone anyway if they have a problem with that.

  • orient means east

    just tellin u

    :)

  • there was a different response where i admitted that i was wrong. but thanks for pointing it out. spasibo!

  • see, here is a copy of the message:

    okay okay , i was wrong. i just looked it up and it means both "the orient" and "east".

    so , youtube community, please accept my most humble apologies. oh..., and tongue the stale sweat from my b@lls :)

  • I want to ride from Vladivostok to (near) Tuva. Wonder what that would cost first class.

  • Does anyone know how much an `unlinited ticket` would cost for this railway, if one exists, if purchased from Moscow?

  • There is no such unlimited ticket.

    A 2nd class ticket Moscow - Beijing for the "Vostok"-train (train no 19/20) costs 400 EUR if bought in Moscow.

  • Can you add the CPB logo at the beginning, please? I saw VLY/Viewers Like You, but no cpb.

  • can't do sorry that would require a re upload.

  • I meant that you can only do the funding part. Nothing else. Just the fundings. And by the way, what month and day was this aired? I know this was 1996, but what was the month and day?

  • Starting a reupload? Not what I exactly meant. I mean you can do a video with the opening credits and the fundings. Not the first part of the Siberian show. Just the opening part and fundings. Which I just know has CPB next to Viewers Like You.

  • pbscraze, stfu with that stupid garbage.

  • Yeah this is next on my list. I have already been to Moscow and Kostrama. Saint Petersburg and Siberia are next.

  • open huh...not on putins watch

  • My dream tour, i must take this train once in my life

  • Me too
