Yep, for 3 train tickets via the travel agencies. You could of course buy your tickets at each station for much less. But then you'll have to deal with the language barrier and the possibility of not getting a bunk. I tried doing this for the overnight St. Petersburg to Moscow leg and was put in 3rd class as the ticketing staff spoke no English and my sign language wasn't up to par
