New York to Moscow by Air Rail from Holland
A Northwest Express journey from Holland to Moscow spans about 1300 miles, roughly equal to New York to Omaha. The two day trip traverses politically tense regions with stark contrasts in living standards including a cramped Russian sleeping car and dim interior. The route passes through Rotterdam Utrecht West Germany East Berlin Marienborn and into Poland amid snow filled woods and border crossings. A Russian conductor greets travelers in Hook of Holland and a Dutch dining car showcases modern West German and Dutch scenes before crossing into East Berlin and then Poland.
