Reunification Express trip report
Posted by Memma on Tuesday, August 25, 2020 8:43 PM
Before COVID closed down travel I was lucky enough to travel from London to Saigon by train through Russia etc. I've been writing a series of articles on the trip. If anyone is interested here is a link to the article. I'd vote the Reunification Express, particularly the section from Hue to Danang, as one of the most scenic train trips in Asia!

VERY interesting article, thanks for posting it!  

By the way, do you know anything about that old French 2-8-2 the Vietnamese were restoring?  I haven't heard much about it lately.
