Train schedule Bucharest-Czernowitz

Bucuresti Gara de Nord Gr. A Dpart 06:38
Chernovcy-Severnaya Arrive 20:35
Travel time 13:57

At the border (Siret) there is a train gage change, the schedule
shows 3 hours but was told it takes much longer. Also do not forget
the custom/immigration hustle on both sides of the Romanian and
Ukrainian border.
The taxi drivers from Suceava have a way of getting through the
border in no time.

I traveled to Czernowitz 10 years ago so my info may be outdated.
There was a train originating in Varna, Bulgaria that stopped in
Bucharest (gara Baneasa) on the way to Moscow via Czernivtsi and
Kiev.The disadvantage was that it took 3 or 4 hours in Suceava (or
Siret) to change wheels for the wider Russian rails. Otherwise it was
a more comfortable ride than car or bus.
