Hi, can you help me out with train travel from Budapest(or other place in Hungary) to to Kiew, Moscow and continue to Vladivostok and probably coming back as well. There are two of us and we are on budget, but on the contrary don't want to do whole trip in pltakrtnui (or how you correctly name that open compartment) carriage.
Thank you

Probably the best option for such trips can be Slovak CityStar ticket (ZSSK-RZD).
Until December 2009 it will cost for two of you only just over 200 euro + sleeper supplements (Kosice-Kiev app. 20 euro per person, Kiev-Moscow depends on train (much cheaper in Ukrainian UZ carriages), Moscow-Vladivostok app. 220 euro per person in "kupe").
It means that cheapest train journey "any station in Slovakia"-Vladivostok and back together with all the sleeper reservations will cost app.700 euro for two of you. While regular domestic tariff one way ticket Moscow-Vladivostok for one person today costs app. 18500 RUB or 410 euro (train #2). I think the correct choice here is obvious
The only thing you need is to get from Budapest to any Slovak station and purchase there CityStar + sleeper reservations for the first leg of your journey. Probably faster and easier it will be to go from BP to Kosice, but Sturovo or Bratislava works as well
