User:Ncysea/From London to Singapore

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

With the newly opened Boten–Vientiane railway on 3 December 2021, it is now possible to travel from United Kingdom London to  Singapore entirely by train. However, the current situation in Ukraine has made this itinerary impossible (as of July 2022). This article lists several possible plans to accomplish this journey when all railway services are back to normal. Some of these timetables were published before the COVID-19 pandemic. Always check with railway companies for the latest timetables and statuses.
