11:57 - Kotovsk

It's a 11:57 and we're in Kotovsk (it basically means Catovsk!). 
I'm not sure if this is a legit station....  but it's a nice spot to watch trains! 


Kotovsk is next to a very rustic and ethnic village, which looks very gloomy now, but take my word for it, it's rather funky. Like that cow chillin' on the railways (I didn't get a chance to snap it though...)



Some scenery around

Man, this trip is taking so long.... but the scenery is rewarding. 



Those grain containers aren't really scenery, but the were pretty awesome.
Another bad thing with this trip is the constant loss of signal, thus no internet... Oh well, who needs internet when you got books :D 

8:09 - Vinitsya

Internet is slowly disappearing, and sleep is taking over. Fighting the terrible urge to ditch everything and take a nap, I inspect Vintsya, a famous city with a rather shabby train station. 


Actually, I seen worse. This is pretty nice.
Leaving, I managed to take a shot if the city itself.


Sadly I was to lazy to take more pics, but belive me the rest of the city is pretty!   Wonder what I'll see next....

4:57- Kiev

At 4:50 am we got on the train and met a very sleepy coordinator who showed us to our places. After 7 minutes of utter chaos we final set sail! Don't you just love the tingly sensation you get when something as massive as a train starts moving! 


That's the station. It's pretty empty but still...


The massive clock tower with huge letters on it spelling out "Kiev".


Watching the sun rise on a train. That's cool!
