These photos, taken this morning on the train from Kings Cross to Huntigndon, are to make my Russian friends jealous.
On the other hand, train journeys are so expensive here. It was less than 100km but cost me £23 for a single (more than 1,000 roubles!). To go that distance, and further, in Russia, on an electrichka, would cost in the region of 100 roubles - a tenth of the cost.
P.S. there were no заяцы on the train, as far as I know. The ticket inspector got on and everybody stayed in their seats and showed their tickets!
