If you arrive by train:
There are several large railway stations ("vokzals")
in St. Petersburg.
Trains from Moscow, other Russian cities to the south

Most trains from the west and south-west (including European countries) arrive at the Vitebskii vokzal
(metro station Pushkinskaya).
Trains from the east, nord-east, and nord-west (Helsinki)

serve only regional trains.
