On July 19, Minsk /BelTA correspondent/. The "Slavianski Bazaar-2011" express train, which ran between Minsk and Vitebsk during the festival, carried almost 6,000 passengers, the press service of Belarusian Railway informed a BelTA correspondent. This is almost twice as many as last year. This Belarusian Railway project is gaining popularity. This year, last year's passenger requests were taken into account when organising the express train's operation. Special attention was paid to informing passengers about upcoming festive events. Passengers could familiarise themselves with the festival programme, view posters, etc. right in the carriage. Additional carriages were included in the train as needed. The "Slavianski Bazaar-2011" express train ran between Minsk and Vitebsk from July 6 to July 16 and was the fastest on this route.-0-
