Cool. They've been doing that for a few years now from China to Europe, including China to Spain which is madder, when you consider they have another change of rail gauge at the French Chinese border. It's crazy though: gauge changes at the Chinese / Russian border, at the Belarus / Poland border and at the France / Spain border. They could do with variable gauge axle wagons.

Dear SuperDave, I'm planning a big summer trip to Bray to play the Arabian Derby and the 5 cent slot machines. What is the best route?
It would damage this forums' reputation
