Good afternoon. I want to take the train from Russia to Barcelona. I live in the city of Chelyabinsk. 3 people travel (adult male and female and 11-year-old child). Please tell us how to get to Barcelona by train, with transfers to which cities you need to take tickets? And on what sites these tickets can be bought? Can I buy a single ticket for the entire period of travel in Europe? And what ticket is better to buy if the journey takes 3 weeks? Thank you in advance.

If you want to save your money and have a lot of free time
1. Unreal variant
travel by suburban train without ticket(except border Belarussia->Poland), but it's really hard and uncomfortably
2. Use suburban train when you cross the border between Russia->Belarussia and Belarussia->Poland.
In this case:
1. Chelyabinsk -> Moscow without changes - see previously post
2. Moscow - Smolensk
time : 4-7 hrs,
price: from 350 rub for seat place, from 1356 rub for third class sleep place
if you do not want to sleep in Smolensk, use overnight train - it depart near 6:00 (6:00 AM)
2. Smolensk(RUS)->Orsha(BEL)
suburban train Smolensk -> Krasnoe
suburban train Krasnoe(Rus) -> Orsha(Bel). You must have belarussia currency
3. Orsha -> Brest
time: near 14 hrs
price: from 21 bel. rub
4. Brest(BEL) -> Terespol(Pol)
Suburban train.
time: 20 min
price: ????
5. Terespol->Warsawa
time: 3-4 hrs

price: ????
7. Frankfurt(Oder)(PL/GE) -> Kehl(GE)

8. Kehl(Ge) -> Strasbourg(FR)
