Plans for Circum-Baikal Railway

+1 vote
Hi there,
I have read your post on Circum-Baikal Railway and would like to ask for your advice on my plan as I am not quite sure about the train schedule.
Get off at Slyudyanka and take the circuit train at 14:20  > stay a night somewhere between 112-98km > then carry on to Port Baikal in the next day afternoon > a night at Irktusk > back on the trans-siberian train the morning after.

And is there any updates or change in the train timetable? As I found some of the website saying that train leaves in the morning from Slyudyanka. Please advice.

Thanks

Hey, it's better to check in May, but in general your schedule should work out. I mean there's at least 1 train a day and if you're adventurous enough to go that far I'm sure you will have no problems with the rest :)
