The longest Trains route we sell touching Kazakhstan runs from Novokuznetsk to Petropavl, 1,170 km in a straight line. The median route in the country is 508 km, so this one is a considerable outlier and the fares on it behave differently from the rest.
Where these numbers come from
Schedules, seat counts and fares are generated by our own model until the supplier contracts are signed. Places, coordinates, operators, which operator serves which pair, and every distance are real. We would rather say that on every page than let a modeled number pass for a filed one.
