en 2025 November 12 Vitali Vitaliev Time travelling RAIL 1048 68 Had I travelled the same route by train (the Trans-Siberian Express, say), it would have taken me a week to get there - enough time to notice that the clocks at all the stations along the way (as well as at all other stations in the totalitarian USSR) stubbornly stuck to Moscow Time. That bizarre arrangement, convenient for the compilers of train timetables but highly confusing for everyone else, was in force until the early 2000s, when railway stations across Russia finally adopted local times, like everywhere else in the world.
