On the news tonight was the arrival in London of the first freight train service arriving from the east coast of China. Takes 14 days and transports goods far cheaper than by air and in half the time of by sea. Anyone fancy a passenger service trip of transporting your motorhome.....(y)

The only thing that made the journey was the containers, they have been moved a few times onto different trains due to different gauges.

I was wondering about the gauge sizes, still that wouldn't stop you enjoying your trip...(y)

If you wish to travel back to China in a container then you need to apply as they are looking to fill them up for the return trip.

Isn't it possible the containers were full of Chinese?
