context_page_description: The Moscow transportation network uses buses, trams, subway system, motorways, trains, helicopters and planes to provide connectivity between Moscow's districts and beyond.
context_section_description: Moscow has several train stations serving the city. Moscow's nine rail terminals (or vokzals)  are:
   Belorussky Rail Terminal
  Kazansky Rail Terminal
  Kiyevsky Rail Terminal
  Kursky Rail Terminal
  Leningradsky Rail Terminal
  Paveletsky Rail Terminal
  Rizhsky Rail Terminal
  Savyolovsky Rail Terminal
  Yaroslavsky Rail Terminal
  They are located close to the city center, but each handles trains from different parts of Europe and Asia. There are smaller railway stations in Moscow. As train tickets are relatively cheap, they are the mode of preference for travelling Russians, especially when departing to Saint Petersburg, Russia's second-largest city. Moscow is the western terminus of the Trans-Siberian Railway, which traverses nearly 9,300 kilometres (5,800 mi) of Russian territory to Vladivostok on the Pacific coast.
  Suburbs and satellite cities are connected by commuter elektrichka (electric rail) network. Elektrichkas depart from each of these terminals to the nearby (up to 140 kilometres (87 mi)) large railway stations.
  The Moscow Little Ring Railway is now integrated in the Moscow Metro System.
