The Nevsky Express (Russian: Невский экспресс) (No. 167B/168B) is a Russian Railways express train, formerly the fastest on the prominent route between the Leningradsky Rail Terminal in Moscow and the Moskovsky Rail Terminal in Leningrad (the Moscow-Leningrad Railway). The train has a maximum speed of 200 km/h (125 mph) and does not make any intermediate station stops. It consists of a Skoda Chs200 locomotive, 13 passenger cars and a restaurant car. It features 6-person compartments in some cars and airline style seating in other cars.
The Nevsky Express was initially retired with the introduction of the faster Sapsan high speed trains but was later reinstated in the schedule in 2010. The train covers the distance between Moscow and Leningrad in 4 hours 10 minutes. By comparison, the Sapsan trains take between 3 hours 40 minutes and 4 hours 10 minutes to make the same trip.
