After the terrorist attack at the Russian "Crocus City Hall," rumors surfaced about the closure of railway communication between Russia and Tajikistan. However, the State Unitary Enterprise "Rohi Okhani Tochikiston" (Tajikistan Railways) denied these rumors, stating that trains to Russia continue to operate.
Trains run to Volgograd twice a week, on Tuesdays and Saturdays, along the routes Dushanbe-Volgograd-Dushanbe and Khujand-Volgograd-Khujand. The travel time ranges from approximately 2.5 to 3.5 days depending on the departure point.
For more detailed schedules, passengers can refer to the official website. Ticket prices should be verified at the ticket offices of the State Unitary Enterprise "Rohi Okhani Tochikiston."
It is worth noting that passenger train services from Tajikistan to Russia resumed on August 30, 2022, after a hiatus of over two years.
