Trains leaving the Russian Federation go from other stations. Nevertheless, from "Finban" many important flights depart, such as "St. Petersburg - Helsinki", as well as many suburban routes. On average, every hour from the Finland Station, at least 1,500 passengers go on the road. The building of "Finban" is connected with the metro entrance "Ploshchad Lenina" - the traveler only needs to pay careful attention to the signs in the metro and get to the station, not Botkinskaya street.
