The main train station in Nizhny Novgorod is the Moscow Station (Московский Вокзал), located in the Lower City (Zarechnaya Chast,
i.e. across the Oka River from the old city center). Besides serving all of the
long-distance trains, it is also sends commuter trains in 6 directions throughout much of the oblast:
west (the Moscow line), to Dzerzhinks, Seima (for Volodarsk) and points west toward Vladimir.
Naturally, if you are going to a more remote city in the oblast (e.g. Arzamas or Lukoyanov in the south-east) can also buy a ticket for a long-distance train that passes through it.
There is also a little known terminal station of Myza, near Gagarin Avenue in the Upper City of Nizhny Novgorod (i.e.,
east of the Oka). Inconveniently located several miles south of the city center, it only sends a few trains
a day to the Metallist branch and to the Zeletsino branch (south-east), for Kstovo.
