Getting There By Rail
Tallinn Railway Station, Balti Jaam, Toompuiestee 35 (tel: 615 6851; website: www.evr.ee) is currently in the midst of a major renovation that is set to bring it into the 21st century though the national rail network is still limited. This railway station on the edge of the old town offers services to domestic destinations such as Narva, Parnu and Tartu, but only one international route, across the border to Moscow. The company running electric trains to the satellite towns and villages outside the capital is Elektriraudtee (tel: 673 7400; website: www.elektriraudtee.ee), while Edelaraudtee (tel: (038) 57 123; website: www.edel.ee) run longer distance trains. Beware the shady characters the station seems to attract.
