Demand for very long distance trains
Russian Railways published some interesting statistics about the usage of its Moscow - Western Europe train services.
Briefly, in their first year of operation, services to 4 destinations carried 27,000 passengers - 1500 on the Paris service (which has a 12 hour stop in Berlin in one direction and a 7 hour stop in the other); 6200 on the Munich service; 7000 on the Basel service and 12000 on the Amsterdam service.
There is much debate about the demand for train and plane on short haul trips: statistics like these show there is alos a demand for the very long train journey too.
