A view from the main station of Batumi, Georgia. The train on the left is an old ER2 or ER1 built by RVR in Riga, Latvia during
communist times, but it has received a completely new driver's cab. The train on the right is a Stadler KISS GRS "Eurasia", built by
the Swiss company Stadler Rail. Stadler produced a series of these trains for the purpose of running between Moscow city and airport
in Russia as "Aeroexpress". It is a slightly modified version of Stadler's double decker KISS regional train. But the private company
Aeroexpress ran out of money and could not pay all the trains it had ordered, so some of them were sold to Azerbaijan Railways and
Georgian Railways.
