Where to buy train tickets from Finland to Russia

Some people enjoy traveling through countries: flying to one and returning home from another. In this case the best way to ensure yourself (in my humble opinion) is to buy train tickets in advance. To this purpose could be used Finnish railway website (as Russian one do not allow buying international tickets online):

They sell tickets from Finland to Moscow, St. Petersburg and small towns on the way: Tver and Vyborg. One train, which is called Leo Tolstoy, goes through all four destinations from Helsinki once a day, and other one, Allegro high-speed train, is going only to St. Petersburg via Vyborg several times a day (and it goes really fast, about 3.5 hours Helsinki - St. Petersburg).

Happy journey!
