I went from London to Saigon by train, and then various overland options to southern Thailand, back in 2007. It feels like yesterday.
From London it was 2 hours to Brussels, 3 hours to Cologne, 34 hours to Moscow, 100 hours to Ulaanbataar, and 30 hours to Beijing. So that’s 170 hours of train from London to Beijing. From there, I criss crossed China for a month before travelling the length of Vietnam, then through Cambodia to Thailand, ending 90 days of overland travel. Great times.
