Good to see the video back Doc, I wanted to see your route and it was gone, glad it’s back. Kind regards and best wishes.
What’s interesting is that China’s railway lines are named according to the starting and ending cities, but the Lanzhou-Xinjiang Railway is named according to the city and province. It is a very rare naming because it came from the 1950s to 1960s and went through more than ten years of hard work. The construction, with a total length of 1,903 kilometers, was of great significance at the time and was named the Lanzhou-Xinjiang Railway by Mao Zedong himself.
Спасибо за хорошие видео.Всегда интересно наблюдать за вашими путешествиями и поездами!!!
Amazing video and love the music.
Totally agree no sleeping is allowed, you don't want to miss the stunning landscape. Thank you for showing it to us.
yes, I was glad not to sleep
Very rare to see the landscape in China. Fascinating video!
fabulous video, of a less travelled zone, yet massive and now brought world class by chinese enterprise. once in a lifetime experience of sort. background music is stunning in its soft melodiousness. a class production from the renowned channel one cant do without.
yes thank you for your feedback
great video, thank you, I really enjoy it. As for "epic journeys" your already did one - Germany to Kazakhstan so you sure can do another one
Beautiful!
Such a brilliant journey, wonderful scenery. Thanks for sharing.
yes, china's wild northwest
Ni hao Zhongguo ❤❤❤hello china
Really good video, as always... thank you. Your editing, i.e. with ambient train sounds and without commentary, works really well for the territories that your videos cover.
thank you for the feedback
A lovely train journey 🚊
I have taken this journey from Lanzhou to Zhangye a dozen times back and forth. It was always a favourite train journey. Like yourself, I always tried to this section in daylight and even went from Chengdu to Zhangye on a hard seat once. I was wondering if you would have a shot of the statue and temple complex, I have always wondered about it too. Looking forward to the next video as it has my favourite part of this route.
yes; it was difficult to book this train;
Reupload?
copyright strike - different music now
@@doc7austinahh, ok. Glad to see your video
I thought that huge bridge at start of video was familiar ! Might wish to note in the info panel that this is a re-upload. @@doc7austin
Landscape in this part of China is so distinctive.
Iran overnight train journeys
From where in China the Himalayan mountain starts
China seems to be quite big on warning signs - almost UK like with health and safety
yeah , this is also my observation
You will go to Urumqy?
of course
In India himalaya starts from North West
ah sure
Show bullet train instead of showing normal trains in prc
there are a number of chinese bullet train videos on my channel
China is being OA! Gosh! I wonder if they’re still happy of what they do?
Christ, those Chinese are noisy !
yes; you are right there
Chinese are pretty clever people !!! LOL🥸
yes, they are.
