For the last day we had a full day excursion to Lake Baikal by train. The electric multiple unit train left just after 08:00 and travelled eastwards through the moutains along the Trans Siberian. At about 10:30 a diesel engine was put on the back and this then dragged the train on a lakeside branch line that has been re-opened for tourist purposes.
1. The train departure board at Irkutusk. Our was train 7038 - don't forget that all Russian trains run on Moscow time although this was 5 hours earlier than local time.
3-4. Kath bought a smoked fish for about 60p. It was very very nice.
