[quote=BISHVABIS,454005]See the "Man in Seat 61" site below, which is a goldmine for information on train travel worldwide. The page below specifically tells you how to go about booking from London to Beijing, and there's also another page about internal Chinese rail services. The usual route is Eurostar from London to Brussels, then an intercity to Cologne, then pick up the daily Russian sleeping car to Moscow (takes 2 nights). There's a weekly train between Moscow and Beijing via the Trans-Mongolian route, using Chinese coaches (Russian dining car in Russia, Mongolian in Mongolia, and Chinese in China) , and a weekly Russian train via the Trans-Manchurian route. One way fare around £550 second class, £780 first class. Don't forget that you will also need to budget for a Chinese tourist visa, and Mongolian, Russian, and Belarussian transit visas.[/quote]
