About the railway network in general... The first difference between Finnish railways and other European countries is, of course, the track gauge. It is 1524 mm here, that is, the same as in the open spaces the former USSR, and not 1435, as in the vastness of the united Europe. Due to this, the rolling stock is wider, respectively, more spacious in the cars. Since the track gauge is the same, freight cars from Russia can directly enter Finland. I saw a lot of Russian cars. The railway network is quite dense in the south of the country, and quite sparse in the north of the country, which, incidentally, is logical - the bulk of the country's population is concentrated in the south. The "density" in the south is, of course, relative, the density of railways is much less than in countries central Europe... The main lines are electrified with alternating 25 kV 50 Hertz. There are several border crossings with neighboring countries, with Sweden and with Russia. Through the border crossing with Sweden, as I understand it, there is only freight traffic, there is a single track (four-line track), several border crossings with Russia, the main one is Vainikkala - Buslovskaya.
Freight traffic... Apparently not very intense, freight trains are practically invisible. The main cargo is timber and raw materials from Russia - there are Russian tank cars, gondola cars, and covered wagons.
Passenger traffic. The main lines are a triangle: the border of Russia - Vainikkala - Helsinki - Turku - Tampere. The busiest intercity traffic is between Helsinki and Tampere. This line is an electrified double track along its entire length, there are several passenger trains per hour, with the exception of a night break for 3-4 hours. Turku - Helsinki on average one train per hour. Turku - Tampere approximately one train every two hours. There are several types of trains, these are high-speed Pendolino, Intercity, Express trains, and local trains. There is a night train "Santa Claus Express" from Helsinki to Kemijärvi in Lapland with modern double-decker sleeping cars. Rolling stock different years release but the trains are clean, it's nice to ride. The speeds are high enough, Turku-Tampere, the usual non-Intersti train kept an average of 120-140 km / h, Tampere-Helsinki, the usual train was often 160 km / h, "Pendolino" was also 160 km / h, in some sections up to 220 km / h.
Prices. They are quite high, on average at the level of other countries Western Europe... For example, Tampere - Helsinki, the distance is about 180 kilometers. Ticket prices are as follows: Pendolino -36.5 euros, travel time 1 hour 30 minutes, Intercity - 31 euros 1 hour 45 minutes, local train 24 euros and the journey takes 2 hours. As you can see, the time difference is not fundamental in order to pay 1.5 times more. I took a local train. If you buy a ticket a week in advance, it will cost about 10% less. There are some other special offers. Prices and schedule can be found on a good website: http://www.vr.fi/ There are English and Russian versions.
Well, enough scribbling, let's look at the pictures :)
Railway station in Turku.
Intercity train Turku - Helsinki at Turku station. Modern electric locomotive of Sr2 class "Guinea Pig" of Swiss construction. In total, the Finns have 46 of these machines. It differs from its Swiss progenitors (SBB Re 460) in track width, current type and CA-3 coupler. Some of the machines of this type are equipped with a combined coupling (CA-3 and a turnbuckle). Basically, electric locomotives of this type carry intercity trains, usually six double-decker cars. Finnish coloring looks beautiful, contrasting white-red or white-green.
Train Turku - Tampere and electric locomotive Sr1. Soviet-built Sr1 electric locomotives are the most numerous on Finnish railways; in total, the Finns have 110 such machines. Built at the Novocherkassk Electric Locomotive Plant from 1973 to 1985. Universal locomotives used in both passenger and freight traffic. Despite their venerable age, they run quite fast, in some places this train kept a speed of 140 km / h. We knew how to do it once :)
Fragment of the timetable for Turku. Finland has two official languages - Finnish and Swedish, and they are completely different from each other. For example the city of Turku in Swedish is Abo. The schedule is written in two languages.
Ticket machine. Biele can be bought quickly and easily. Of course, there is an English menu. You can pay only by card, in cash only at a regular cash desk. My German Maestro was accepted without any problems.
Locomotive Sr1 and train Turku - Tampere. Automatic couplers CA-3 are not installed on all locomotives; they are also found with screw ties.
Restaurant car!
Route plate and car number. I was a little surprised that the tickets for this train were with seats.
Inside. The Finnish carriage is wider than its European counterparts, it is more spacious here.
The landscapes outside the window are very reminiscent of Russia, only everything is clean. There are a lot of forests. Mainly conifers and birches. In the very south of Finland, the climate is milder, and already allows the cultivation of some cereals.
The train, driven by the old Soviet electric locomotive Sr1, ran very fast, often 140 km / h, as can be seen from the GPS.
Another view from the window.
A raft of two Pendolinos in Tampere. Each train consists of six carriages. The color is either white-green or white-red.
Intercity train with electric locomotive Sr2.
Night train Helsinki - Kemijärvi. Modern double-decker sleeping cars, some of the compartments even have a shower. Finnish cars.
The train is made up of both double-decker and ordinary carriages.
And at the back there are wagons for transporting cars.
Station names are always in two languages. Funny Christmas trees are painted on the carriages.
Alstomovskiy electric train of Sm4 class. I rode this one from Tampere to Helsinki. Complete set of 2 + 3 seats, a rarity on European railways. As a rule, this is 2 + 2. But the Finnish track is wider, and accordingly the carriages are also wider.
Some train stations are wooden.
Views from the window. Tampere - Helsinki line.
Russian gondola cars.
Locomotive.
Electric train Sm4 at the train station in Helsinki.
The interior of a double-decker carriage in intercity trains. Comfortable, spacious, clean. But it seems to me that there is too little room for luggage in a double-deck carriage, because this is not a regional train and people sometimes travel with luggage, and it is unlikely that it will be possible to put a bag on such shelves.
The carriage has a special room for telephone conversations. Nowhere else have I seen this.
Ladder.
There are 220V sockets.
Trains at the train station in Helsinki. Many new Swiss Stadlers.
In Finland, Stadlers are designated Sm5.
There are also electric trains of a more respectable age, classes Sm1 and Sm2, which were produced in 1968-1981.
Railway station in Helsinki.
Platforms.
Electric locomotive Sr2.
Allegro trains run between St. Petersburg and Helsinki. This is a multi-system 25kV + 3kV "Pendolino". Travel time to date is 3 hours 36 minutes. In my opinion, a good alternative to the plane. There are four pairs a day.
And finally, a bonus track - Helsinki rail transport.
Underground. There is one metro line with a fork in Helsinki. In the center it runs underground, but most of the path is on the surface. There are no turnstiles in the metro. A single city ticket is valid for the metro and other types of transport. A one-day pass costs 7 euros.
And some pictures of trams. Old model.
Most interesting route: 3B and 3T, passes by the "eight" through the city center and the station. And on the way, the tram SUDDENLY changes its number. At first, looking at the diagram, it seems that you can't figure it out without a bottle, but then enlightenment comes.
New tram model, multi-section "caterpillar". They are low-floor, quieter and air-conditioned inside. By the way, we checked the tickets once. The controllers entered each door one at a time. So it is not recommended to travel without a ticket.
I liked the transport in Finland, only a little expensive.
Traveling around Finland by train is comfortable and enjoyable. Trains are adapted to the needs of both business passengers and families with children. And when traveling to Lapland, you can even take a car with you.

The blue fast trains also have enough space to carry bulky luggage.
New sleeping cars
VR recently commissioned new double-deck sleeping cars on the Helsinki-Rovaniemi route. Each compartment of this carriage has two beds. A compartment can also be booked for one passenger only.
Some compartments on the ground floor can be combined - this is convenient, for example, for family travel... Each compartment on the second floor has its own shower and toilet. On the ground floor, shower and toilet are shared for
all compartments. Each compartment has a separate climate control system. Smoking in sleeping cars is prohibited.

From the history of Finnish railways
It is interesting that a large role in the construction of Finnish railways was played by Russian empire... The first line in Finland was laid during the reign of Alexander II and by his decree - in 1862 between it connected Helsinki and Hämenlinna. At first, this line could pass trains at a speed of only 25 km / h, so a rider on a horse could easily overtake a train.
In 1870, Helsinki (then Helsingfors) was connected by a railway line with St. Petersburg. And in 1875 a railway was built between the port of Hanko and Helsinki. In June 1876, the road was completed from Tampere to Turku via Toyalan. Three major cities in Finland were united. In 1878 Tampere was connected to Seinayoki and Vaasa. In 1890, the so-called Karelian railway was built from Vyborg, through Antrea, Vuoksenniska, Sortavala, Joensuu.
The electrification of the country in the 1930s greatly accelerated the construction of railways in Finland, and today the rail network covers the entire territory of the country.
In Finland, you can see electric locomotives built in Novocherkassk. A batch of 110 SR1 series electric locomotives was manufactured at the Novocherkassk Electric Locomotive Plant. The first electric locomotives arrived in Finland in 1973. Other Russian rolling stock can be easily found in Helsinki. When you go to celebrate the new year in Finland or Lapland (north of the country), then you sit on branded trains Repin. The carriages of these trains are built by Russian factories.
