Hello ! I am leaving Shanghai on 2nd November to go to Beijing for a few days. I would also like to stop somewhere on the way to Beijing that is historically interesting for a day if possible ?. Could anyone please advise me on :
1. What would be the best train to get to Beijing from Shanghai that allows me to stop en route on the way ?
2. If there is no such train , can anyone please advise the quickest train to get to Beijing ?
3. And where to book it from in Shanghai ?

Thanks to everyone in advance for any help !

Cheers,

Bill

1) and 2) No such train. Take any of the overnight D trains which take around 10+ hours.
3) If you need help with train tickets, email me at yahoo.com|ellyse99 and put "TravelChinaGuide" and your own username (eg BillyBoyM) in the subject line.
