Night train (2)
- Almaty–Tashkent Talgo
Central Asia’s new international Talgo, daily since December 2025: dinner leaving Almaty under the Tian Shan, lunch next day in Tashkent.
- Tashkent–Khiva Night Train
Khiva had no railway until 2018: now a sleeper crosses the Kyzylkum desert overnight and draws up beside the mud-walled Itchan Kala at breakfast.
