Train from Petersburg

I haven't been able to obtain accurate information about trains from Petersburg to Helsinki. I will be going on June 24. Is departure from the Finland station or Ladozhsky?

It seems that there are no overnight trains, and trains leave at either 7:15 or 16:30 (not counting Tolstoy). How long is the trip? I have seen travel times ranging from 5 hours to 6.5.

Hi! According to VR Journey Search (http://www.vr.fi/heo/eng/index.html), there are three departures a day from St Petersburg. The earliest leaves Ladozhski station at 6:07 and takes 6h 53 min to Helsinki. The other two trains leave from Finljandski station around the times you suggested.
