This reminds me of a rail trip I’ve always wanted to take: Western Europe to Singapore, which may not be as geopolitically interesting, but may be the longest possible continuous rail journey.
When I first had the idea there was still a gap in the way in Southeast Asia, but it looks like it may have been closed now: https://www.seat61.com/map-of-train-routes-in-southeast-asia.htm https://www.seat61.com/map-of-train-routes-in-southeast-asia...
- sushibowl 1y agoThere was an article about this journey just recently: https://bigthink.com/strange-maps/portugal-to-singapore-train/ https://bigthink.com/strange-maps/portugal-to-singapore-trai... Unfortunately you may have to wait some time, at the moment the journey is not be completable because the Paris-Moscow express service (and indeed all train service between Russia and Western Europe) is suspended due to sanctions against Russia.
