Yekaterinburg

So, stop number I can't remember. We are here for nearly an hour, so plenty of time to shop for necessities, and have a wander along the platform before my legs seize up! It was here the Romanov's came to their end, but haven't got time to go and see anything, unfortunately. Its warmer here too, and we've left the snow behind - for now, at any rate. We had visitors in the night, but they've got off here, think they were all new train crew, with their smart hats and coats. There were about 20 in all, marching along the platform. The engine pictured isn't our engine, but one on the adjacent track, same as ours though. As we go along this line, we have several engine changes as we go from one train company to another. Lots of maintenance trains too and I saw about 3 gangs of workers yesterday. It's good to know that the track is looked after very well.もっと詳しく
