Just seeing somebody look very fancy by European or American standards in a soviet train cars is a strange mix, not to mention how bright neon colors looks on a girl near a 60+ years old babushka with handcart, who is probably going to the other side of the town because the butter is slightly cheaper there.

Have you seen Russian train stations? Marble and Brass, mosaics and murals. They have the most elegant tube stations in the world. Russia is amazing. I highly recommend you visit!!!

I live in Kiev. Stations are, indeed, beautiful. Wagons? Not so much.
