Thank you for the superior lounge! We were on November 23rd with a child! We spent time in silence and comfort before the train departure. The child has cartoons turned on, there are coloring books, pencils! For adults there is wifi, coffee machine, microwave. Everything is fine!
A fairly large and spacious train station for such a small city. In general, everything is standard, they serve like everywhere else, there is a toilet, several places where you can eat, waiting areas, a pharmacy, etc.
Good and pleasant communication with the cashiers of the railway station, however, like everywhere else, I will probably owe you a penny))) I didn't really like the communication of the police officers who are on duty and look after the order, I was cleanly dressed, neat, sober, a policeman came up, muttered something to himself and asked to show a passport or ID card, which was politely refused to this request, I don't have anything to show anyone if someone wanted an offense there, not what not there was no orientation, etc. We talked for a long time very much To Get the camera and shoot on video, this is probably the last measures I decided to just show it already, I would have lagged behind There were few signs and identification signs of smoking places On the territory of the station, a completely different representative of the authorities came up introduced himself Explained where the smoking place is located, of course, Wrote it down in my notebook but on the first time is a warning and not a fine for smoking in a public place, Be careful))

The station of the hero city of Orsha is located in the Vitebsk region of Belarus! This is a central hub station through which a very large flow of trains such as passenger and freight trains passes! Very significant even in wartime!
One of the oldest buildings in the city, completely rebuilt after the war, during the revolution, V.I. Lenin himself gathered workers on the territory of the station
This railway station works like a vintage but very reliable clock! Competent, courteous staff works here, and the condition of the railway track is simply excellent! I understand that behind these simple sleepers and rails there is a hellish work of people, I bow to them for this! Railway transport is the most reliable and safe for me! I recommend everyone to use the services of the Orsha-Tsentralnaya station!!!!
Not everyone knows that you can stay in the local recreation room quite like a hotel, and the prices used to be ridiculous (they say Father Lukashenko insisted that people not spend money), and even now they are not very biting. Check if the system is still running. when those who arrive after midnight pay 50 percent of the price.
Positive:
You can have a good snack
The possibility of any kind of free charging
One of the disadvantages is that the chairs in the waiting room are uncomfortable for long sitting
At all stations of the Republic of Belarus, the same notes can be traced in the design: gray-yellow marble and a calm dark blue background with silver pointer font. There are rest rooms at the Orsha railway station, but they are miserable, they do not even have soap and are not supposed to, although there are dispensers for liquid soap. There is also a commercial coffee point at the station with a cute red-haired beast at the checkout. All this complements the interior, but I haven't tried coffee there- paper and plastic cups completely disfigure the taste of the already cheapest robusta. Schematically, the platforms are located on both sides of the station, which divide the station into north and south sides. You need to get used to this and not panic when you find out that your train departs from the north side of the station, and you do not have a compass with you. The transition between the tracks is land-based, but if both crossings of the second track are blocked by a train, then you can only get to the third one through the bridge. Since the Orsha station is a large railway interchange, there are many ways and the bridge turned out to be long, but it is made in the good old traditions of the USSR - without elevators for the disabled and protection from the weather. There are enough antiseptic dispensers. They hang in the vestibules, the tuleta and near many of the station's retail outlets.
Clean, warm,cozy, trains run strictly according to schedule, the staff is dressed in good clothes, we were late at night and the station was not filled with people, and that's good.Good shops and cafes with pastries, a great choice for the train station.I liked.
High quality of service, the opportunity to rent a hotel room for accommodation at affordable prices, food-cafe, restaurant, information devices, internal information equipment.. Respect.
Everything is very convenient not only for passengers but also for residents near the train station.In addition, there is excellent architecture and a place to relax.Monument to the steam locomotive "Victory"
Very clean, friendly staff. A lot of goodies are on sale. You can rent a rest room, you can sit in the high-comfort waiting room. Very beautiful girls work.
One of the most beautiful monumental railway station buildings, surpassing many in much larger cities, is an architectural monument. Especially after the renovation. The opportunity to purchase a ticket at vending machines by means of a bank card, without crowding into queues, ATMs and information kiosks in the halls. And smelly homeless syphilitic psoriasis patients (possible) in the waiting room! On the same benches where the children will sit later, normal neat people!😠 That's really this Slavic pity and pseudo-humanity😷 Shouldn't garbage and slops be in the trash (or in specially designated places), and not in such a beautiful hall?
Externally, it is very beautiful, convenient location in the city, good service, pharmacy, coffee , a large selection of products, a good recreation area.
An ordinary train station, neat and clean. The prices for a bottle of water are, of course, like for a Boeing wing, but this is the case at all train stations)
Good. A convenient station. The cafe is inexpensive and delicious. Beautiful courtyard. Monument to Zaslonov. And a steam locomotive. I even took a selfie there. It turned out well.
A typical example of post-war architecture, the bloodless country erected many such stations throughout the USSR. It is spacious, comfortable, and the state cares about its citizens.
A convenient and large train station.The entire infrastructure is present.Polite cashiers.Trains in all directions.Free Wi-Fi.A chain of cafes and a restaurant.2 waiting rooms and rest rooms.
It is convenient that the paths are on both sides. Large spacious halls, many cafes and stalls. Sometimes I sat there for 4 hours waiting for a passing train, with my things, and it was always comfortable.
Everything is provided for passengers and greeters, as well as for transit passengers. Although I think the prices in the rest rooms are too high. The station building itself is beautifully decorated.
The station has several entrances, which is very convenient. There is also a buffet on the ground floor, and upstairs there are rest rooms, and the prices are more than acceptable.
Just what kind of coffee you want , from the elite and gastronomic vending machines, look carefully at smoking , people have already tamed smoking in squares, if you leave the car for more than 5 minutes (due to crossing the bridge) then you risk snatching an administrative order for parking in the best case , the Ministry of Internal Affairs is very polite - do not appear with fumes even from medicines (you risk not catching the train ) , in general it is very convenient , I recommend not to stay too long and come 10 minutes before departure .
Everything is fine, of course, but the prices for food (bars, sodas, etc.) are hellish, compared to the store 2 times more.
From the first time, you can get confused in the sides (north or south) of the station.
