It was winter: The staff at the Otar Railway Station are rude, always unhappy, they don't answer through me (like leave me alone), and there's also a problem with the toilet, it's far away and it's scary to walk in the dark, and it's dirty. Not long ago I was at the Otar railway station on 06/01/2025, it turns out that people do not change and still sit with unhappy faces and respond rudely. If you don't like your job, let them give way to other people.

The station is clean, small, the platform is also clean, there are bins. The outdoor toilet is certainly a fire, well, at least not in the bushes. Although it's definitely nicer in the bushes. I did not see kiosks with mineral water and doshik, one store, possibly around the clock, was noticed. Otar is convenient for those who go to Bishkek, so as not to take the insanely unjustifiably expensive dirty antediluvian Bishkek-Samara train, it is only 100 km to the border, to meet and go by car. By the way, there are no taxis in the Flock at the station. At night, I put my parents on a train and drove two of the people who arrived to the center of the Flock, as they did not find a taxi.

I had to get off at the first stop after Almaty and return back. It was night. The town is quiet and peaceful, the railway station is warm. I waited there for 2 and a half hours for the fast talgo train. Cons I really wanted to buy something, but there were no shops at the station.
