Migrant Express Part 2: Boarding Time

Thousands of migrants travel from Tajikistan to Russia each year in search of work. For many, the trip begins with a grueling four-day train journey from Dushanbe to Moscow, during which they endure police inspections, cramped quarters and brutal heat.

RFE/RL correspondents Mumin Shakirov and Alexander Kulygin traveled with a group of Tajik migrants on one such journey, experiencing the same hardships and recording the stories, hopes, and fears of four people seeking work in Russia.

In the second part of the series, 28-year-old farmer Umed says good-bye to his family, and the travelers begin their long and difficult train journey to Moscow.
