According to the Russian official, the possibility of further train movement to Mogilev was discussed with Oleg Belozyorov, General Director of Russian Railways. Passengers will likely have to transfer in Orsha.

Direct cross-border local trains between Smolensk and Vitebsk Oblasts were launched on April 2, 2026, after a break of many years. They connected Smolensk with Orsha and Vitebsk.

According to data as of September 23, more than 60 thousand passengers used the trains. Of the total number of passengers, 64% were citizens of Russia, and 36% were citizens of Belarus.

Also, in 2027, the launch of similar cross-border trains is expected from Velikiye Luki, Pskov Oblast, to Polotsk and Vitebsk.
