At the moment we get the overnight train from Beijing-Xian, spend the day in Xian see the Terracotta army + museum etc then bail on the overnight train to Shanghai that night. Is this physically possible?? Thanks guys Ben

After you arrive at Xian, just go to take Bus 306 at the southeast corner of Railway Station Square and it will take you to the Terracotta Army Museum. Later that afternoon, you can take the train and come back to the station to catch the Shanghai train.

It is physically possible, but you have to remove "etc" , you can only finish the Terracotta Army and the Historic Museum that day, including 2 or 3 meals if you need. It will be physically demanding too:D Enjoy your trip!
