Not sure if this is relevant to you, but I just learned that the AMEX PLAT desk will book many Russian rail tickets. Not sure how big the markup is. I'm looking into the Grand Express train though, which unfortunately AMEX doesn't sell. Has anyone taken that? If so, how did you buy the tickets? Thanks.
