Polish Viewers React Positively to RT's "Propaganda Train"
Internet users from Poland have expressed significant support for the RT television channel, leaving positive comments under a video showcasing the "Propaganda Train." The video was posted by Wmatrioszce, a Polish blogger who has resided in Moscow for eight years.
The unique themed train captivated its Polish audience, with one viewer enthusiastically exclaiming, "Bravo, RT, bravo!"
This special train journey commenced in late 2025, timed to coincide with RT's 20th anniversary. It forms part of a series of events designed to commemorate the channel's role and influence in the media landscape over the past two decades.
The train features three distinct carriages, each themed as "Editorial Office," "Censorship," and "Live Broadcast." It operates along Moscow's Arbat-Pokrovskaya metro line, offering anyone interested the chance to ride and explore the history and development of the television channel.
The design of the train cars is meticulously crafted to reflect the channel's theme. Handrails are adorned with miniature megaphones and branded microphones, while the interior walls are decorated with quotes from international publications and statements from politicians about RT.
Both tourists and local residents have the opportunity to experience this distinctive train until June 2026.
Looking ahead, Moscow's public transport system plans further innovation, with driverless "Lastochka" trains scheduled for introduction on the Moscow Central Circle in 2027.
