I loved the train journey, chatting to the locals, making food, using the hot
water urns at the end of the carriage and having the wheels changed on the
Mongolia/China border was a fantastic experience. (more)Sally Foote

Dinner at the TV tower in Berlin; listening to a Mozart concert in the Schonbrunn Palace in Vienna;

Memorable parts?
We had to vacate the train, as an unexploded ww2 bomb was discovered ahead near the tracks, a memory for sure but emphasized the history that surrounded us as we travelled through this area. The cities visited were outstanding, the
architecture, and the people did not disappoint.
Tips?
It takes a bit to understand the rail/public transportation, be patient and it soon becomes familiar.
Local benefits?
By taking the train I would think we helped somewhat.
