A new £12.8 million ($25 million) fully en-suite private train has been launched in Moscow, with The Golden Eagle Trans-Siberian Express serving the world’s longest railway line and bringing new levels of comfort and service to rail travel in Russia.

The Golden Eagle Trans-Siberian Express consists of 21 new state-of-the-art carriages, the majority of which were built in collaboration with the Russian based company, Zircon Service with the inaugural departure on 6 May, 2007, the 14 night journey leaving from Moscow, travelling more than 6,000 miles (10,000 kms) to its final destination, Vladivostok, on the Sea of Japan.

The Golden Eagle Trans-Siberian Express accommodates guests in 12 new sleeping cars that are made up of Gold and Silver classes, with the six Gold class carriages among the best available in rail travel today, featuring modern en-suite amenities including power showers and under floor heating.

Cabins are equipped with state-of the-art DVD/CD players, LCD TV screens, audio system, individual air conditioning, and wardrobe space. Gold class cabins have a spacious cabin area of 77sq ft (7 m2)
