Michael Liu"Trying to make them smile was a good, if fruitless, way to spend time. One morning we arrived for breakfast at 9.30 am to be told that for us, breakfast was over. Annoying when the car is full of train personnel eating their heads off. Travel, eh? The train stopped at stations twice a day so we could stretch our legs and have an unhindered smoke and buy snacks. I was tempted to jump off at Xian to go see the terracotta warriors but restrained myself, as there's always next year. We stopped at one station late at night, where it seemed that half the Chinese Army were saying goodbye to the other half. From the hugging and sobs and photography I assumed they had finished their posting in the Tibet Autonomous Region and were heading home to Beijing. They were very young boys and girls. On the second day trees appeared outside and farms and cows. Suddenly I stopped coughing and could breathe much more easily. Then into the chaos and noise of Beijing. I am so very glad I took this train - if you get the chance, go for it!""
