About 100 passengers took part in the Aeroexpress, Mosgornaslediya and the Russian Song Theater campaign for Victory Day
May 8, 2026
On May 6 and 7, one of the carriages of the Aeroexpress double—decker train became an improvised stage for artists - passengers saw a 46-minute dramatic performance, heard poems and songs from the war years.
The theatrical performance began at the Belorussky railway Station, from which trains with fighters departed during the Great Patriotic War and where the winners returned after it ended, and continued directly on the Aeroexpress train. Throughout the journey to Sheremetyevo Airport, poems and songs from the war years were played in the carriage and fragments from the play "A. Tvardovsky "For the sake of life on earth! Vasily Terkin".
It should be noted that from May 1 to May 10, Aeroexpress organizes free travel in business class cars for veterans of the Great Patriotic War and their escorts. The privilege is granted to citizens of the Russian Federation: participants, veterans and invalids of the Second World War, former minor prisoners of concentration camps, ghettos and other places of forced detention, persons awarded the badge "Resident of besieged Leningrad", "Resident of besieged Sevastopol" and "Resident of besieged Stalingrad".
From May 7 to 11, touching audio congratulations on Victory Day from Nadezhda Babkina, People's Artist of Russia, Full Knight of the Order of Merit for the Fatherland, and Lev Leshchenko, People's Artist of the RSFSR, Full Knight of the Order of Merit for the Fatherland, will be played in train cars as a tribute to the heroic deed of the Soviet people in the Great Patriotic War.
On May 9, the company will traditionally support the campaign of the Russian Railways "Victory Whistle". At 12:00, Aeroexpress trains en route will give a long minute-long honk in honor of the 81st anniversary of the Great Victory.
