Great Railway Journeys in Asia showcases 34 of the best rail
journeys in South, Southeast and North Asia. The journeys chosen by
David Bowden, an avid rail traveller, range from quirky trains used
as essential travel for locals, such as the North Borneo Railway,
to trains on which passengers can experience 5 star luxury as they
travel through stunning scenery, as, for example, the opulence of
India's Palace on Wheels. Other journeys are chosen for the marvel
of their engineering, Thailand's Death Railway for instance,
features the 300 metre-long Tham Krasae trestle bridge or for the
length of a country that they traverse, like the Trans-Mongolian
Railway that connects Beijing with Moscow via vast plains and
steppes. Some are slow trains and some travel at super-high speeds.
For each journey, there is historical, technical and practical
information as well as interesting details on the places accessible
from the main stations. Each is accompanied by a route map. Whether
you are planning a special trip by train or delighting in
discovering Asia's best railway journeys from the comfort of your
armchair, this book is an informative and entertaining read.
