At present, The Moscow Metro cannot provide foreign guests with the information written in English and a newcomer may get serious problems trying to work a way through strange combinations of the Russian letters and words. However, we'll try to cover all major aspects awaiting our foreign guests in the capital of Russia.

Remember the meaning of some inscriptions on information boards and panels used in Metro:



    Information boards on station walls show the line stations and transfers to stations of other lines. There is a Metro layout in each train car. For convenience each Metro line has its own color. However, you cannot always find the line of required color on light-boards of the Metro stations, which may only indicate the names of stations without displaying the colors of lines. As far as the line color makes the whole job of finding the desired Metro route easier we provide you with the names of lines in English transcription and the color of each line. (More information...)
