Foreigners from America, Australia and Japan, who can afford the "golden" ticket for millions of rubles, loudly twist and take pictures of the steam locomotive with a red star "on the chest". Noticing the camera, an elderly man runs with a magazine for car enthusiasts.
This is my company, "with a smile, he shows some brand.

I used to be a guide in the usual train. Of course, work is different. I am a Russian man, but I will still say that foreigners are much more cultural. To work and from work I am going in the usual second-class car with ordinary passengers. And, of course, I can compare my emotions with the emotions of my colleagues who work in these trains.
