Combined toilet/lavatory compartments are located at each end of the car.

In the Classic Category (II), there are 9 compartments per car. A compartment is shared by two guests. Berths are sized approximately 26.8 × 73.6 inches (68×187cm) and arranged facing each other. There is also a table under the window. Combined toilet/lavatory compartments are located at each end of this category’s cars. In every second car there is a shower compartment.

The newly refurbished Category II Superior now presents interiors in a nostalgic look. The compartments have two lower beds, one on each side of the compartment and measuring 26.7 × 72.8 inches (68×185cm). The 9 compartments in each car share two combination wash and toilet facilities that are located at each end. Depending on the train configuration, a shower facility is shared by guests from two to four sleeping cars. The sanitary facilities were also modernised as part of the refurbishment, with the wagons now outfitted with the practical vacuum toilets, which are preferable both for the user and the environment.

Car Plan - Category II

This category of compartment offers the opportunity to truly travel in the style of the red tsars. Travel in a nostalgic ambience that would even make past Soviet leaders feel at home - but with all of the 21st century’s modern amenities. Each of these rolling hotel rooms offers not only two comfortable beds (31.5 × 72.8 inches or 80 × 185cm) placed one above the other, but also an armchair from which to enjoy the passing landscape. Each of two neighbouring compartments shares a semi-private lavatory with wash basin and simple shower located between them. Combination wash and toilet facilities are located at both ends of the wagons.
