The Oktyabrskaya railway passes through the territory of eleven constituent entities of the Russian Federation - the Leningrad, Pskov, Novgorod, Vologda, Murmansk, Tver, Moscow, Yaroslavl regions, Moscow and St. Petersburg, the Republic of Karelia, and partly through Estonia, Latvia, and Belarus.

Combined railway and water transportation of goods (including export-import) is carried out through the St. Petersburg and Murmansk seaports, the ports of the White Sea (Kandalaksha, Vitino, Kem, Belomorsk) and the White Sea-Baltic Canal (on the Medvezhyegorsk-Belomorsk line).

Suburban passenger transportations on the road range are carried out by the North-West and Moscow-Tver suburban passenger companies.

The main move of the Railways "St. Petersburg - Moscow" from the moment of construction to the present day is one of the most tense directions in Russia. In the 1980s, the leadership of the USSR decided to organize a high-speed movement on it. As a result, the route from St. Petersburg to Moscow became the first and only high-speed railway in the USSR.
