Oh woe! There is still no direct train between Ufa and Kazan! And there won't be!
Wish little Bouncepaw a lot of luck so he gets to his beloved university dormitory in a tight bus safely and with little discomfort.
All those ministers and whatnot saying things like “The 14-hour long train ride would not satisfy the needs of customers” are quite wrong. I'm fine with any time up to 24h, as long as it's a direct train. I know it's three times longer than the bus.
